Conditioning of the Achilles tendon via ankle exercise improves correlations between sonographic measures of tendon thickness and body anthropometry [PDF]

, 2011
Although conditioning is routinely used in mechanical tests of tendon in vitro, previous in vivo research evaluating the influence of body anthropometry on Achilles tendon thickness has not considered its potential effects on tendon structure. This study

Using a Y‐Shaped Artificial Ligament for Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction in Multiligament Knee Injuries: A Surgical Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract In multiligament knee injuries, reconstruction of the posterolateral corner is essential for restoring varus and rotational stability of the knee. Autografts and allografts are the current mainstays for posterolateral corner reconstruction; however, their use is associated with inherent limitations, including graft availability, insufficient ...

Achilles Tendon Disorders

Journal of Osteopathic Medicine, 2015
Abstract Disorders of the Achilles tendon, the largest tendon in the human body, are common and occur in both active and sedentary persons. A thorough history and physical examination allow primary care physicians to make an accurate diagnosis and to initiate appropriate management.

All‐Inside Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Achilles Allograft and Suture Tape Augmentation

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction is challenged by graft elongation and delayed biological integration, often necessitating slow rehabilitation and carrying a risk of arthrofibrosis. This technical report describes an all‐inside technique augmented with the modified internal bracing to address these limitations.

Patellar Tendon Allograft Reconstruction Using Achilles Graft With Traversing Suprapatellar Cerclage Limbs

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Patellar tendon rupture and chronic extensor mechanism deficiency present significant reconstructive challenges, particularly in revision settings or when native tissue quality is poor. We describe a reproducible surgical technique for patellar tendon reconstruction using an Achilles allograft with traversing suprapatellar cerclage limbs. This

Endoscopic Posterolateral Subtalar Release

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Subtalar stiffness is a late complication of calcaneal fractures. It can lead to tightness discomfort and difficulty in walking on uneven surface. Open subtalar release is not a good choice because the extensive surgical wound prohibits early vigorous mobilization exercise.

Repair of chronic Achilles tendon rupture using Bosworth’s technique

Journal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2022
Background: A large number of ruptures of the Achilles tendon occurs in the watershed hypovascular region (zone II) of the tendon which is approximately 2–6 cm proximal to the insertion of tendon at calcaneum.

Does heel offset alter tensile load in the Achilles tendon during treadmill walking? [PDF]

, 2017
Footwear remains a prime candidate for the prevention and rehabilitation of Achilles tendon injuries. Elevation of the heel with footwear has been suggested to decrease ten- sile load in the Achilles tendon (Reinschmidt & Nigg, 1995 ). Recently, however,

Biomaterials for modulating cellular responses of endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells: A promising avenue for tendon regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively summarizes emerging biomaterial‐based strategies and underlying mechanisms for modulating endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs). It offers the most recent insights into TSPC physiology and potential applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in tendons.

Caveolin‐1 enriched apoptotic bodies derived from oral hard palate orchestrate bone remodeling to treat heterotopic ossification

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Downregulated CAV1 in HO is restored via apoptotic bodies from PMSCs, which reprogram bone remodeling by delivering CAV1 to target cells, highlighting the therapeutic role of EV subtypes in heterotopic ossification. Abstract Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a pathological process characterized by ectopic bone formation in non‐osseous tissues, with an ...
