Structural Allograft Reconstruction for Chronic Proximal Hamstring Avulsion Yields Significant Functional Improvement, Acceptable Satisfaction, but Limited Return to Preinjury Sport Levels

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate midterm outcomes of structural allograft reconstruction in patients with chronic proximal hamstring avulsion injuries. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study (minimum 2‐year follow‐up) including patients who underwent allograft surgical reconstruction for proximal hamstring avulsion injuries between 2016 and 2023. The primary

The Free Achilles Tendon Is Shorter, Stiffer, Has Larger Cross-Sectional Area and Longer T2* Relaxation Time in Trained Middle-Distance Runners Compared to Healthy Controls

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Tendon geometry and tissue properties are important determinants of tendon function and injury risk and are altered in response to ageing, disease, and physical activity levels.

A longer Achilles tendon moment arm length is not associated with superior hopping performance

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Variability in musculoskeletal and lower leg structure has the potential to influence hopping height. Achilles tendon moment arm length and plantarflexor muscle strength can influence ankle joint torque development and, consequently, hopping performance.
