Direct repair of the chronic ochronotic Achilles tendon rupture: a case report

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Alkaptonuria (AKU) is a rare hereditary disease. Ochronotic arthropathy, tendinopathy, and osteopenia/osteoporosis are generally musculoskeletal manifestations in patients with AKU.

Achilles tenocytes from diabetic and non diabetic donors exposed to hyperglycemia respond differentially to inflammatory stimuli and stretch

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Scheme depicting the experimental set up of the study. Achilles tendons and tenocytes were isolated from heterozygous (fa/+, non diabetic: non DMT2) and homozygous (fa/fa, diabetic: DMT2) Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats. Tendon degeneration, collagen type 1 alpha 1 chain (COL1A1) and alpha smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression was determined in rat ...

Intramuscular tendon length in agonist–antagonist myoneural interface components in transtibial amputation: An anatomic study

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Interestingly, this study shows that tendons spanned over 75% of the distal muscle belly in all muscles, crucial for the innovative tibiotalar agonist–antagonist myoneural interface (AMI) construction. AMI simulates natural muscle–tendon interaction in amputees, improving prosthetic control despite anatomical constraints.

Structural characterization of newt tendon regeneration after complete transection: In vivo two‐photon imaging and transmission electron microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The present study characterized newt digital flexor tendon regeneration structurally at both micro‐ and nanoscales following complete transection and suggested that the mechanism of tissue regeneration differs between the early phase (until 6 weeks) and the late phase (after 6 weeks). Tendon stubs remained separated for up to 2 weeks after transection,

Functional anatomy of entheses and enthesis organs: A celebration of Professor Mike Benjamin's contribution to enthesis biology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This review celebrates the work of Professor Mike Benjamin, whose anatomical research transformed our understanding of entheses. Entheses are biomechanically complex regions that accommodate the transition between soft connective tissues and bone by natural macroscopic and microscopic adaptations that reduce stress concentration.

Architecture of lower leg muscles in children: Reference curves and potential mechanisms of growth

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Muscle architecture (physiological cross‐sectional area, fascicle lengths and pennation angle) was measured from multimodal MRI scans of the lower legs of 197 children aged ≤15 years. We showed that lower leg muscle volumes (product of PCSA and fascicle length) increase primarily through increases in PCSA (transverse growth) rather than increases in ...

Do plantar calcaneal spurs make the plantar aponeurosis enthesis stronger? A biomechanical analysis

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Novel testing set up for determining enthesial avulsion parameters. Donor calcanei were dissected to isolate the central band of the plantar fascia, and mounted in a custom 3D‐printed rig (Fig A, B, C) for uniaxial tensile testing of the plantar fascia enthesis (Fig D). This study demonstrated no significant differences in the avulsion parameters, Fmax
