Place of Achilles Tenotomy in the Treatment of Severe Intermittent Claudication [PDF]

BMJ, 1971
Achilles tenotomy was performed on 66 limbs in 60 patients with severe intermittent claudication and the results were assessed two years later. Early improvement occurred in half of them but decreased to 17% two years postoperatively. Sympathectomy did not influence the result.

Percutaneous Achilles Tenotomy with a Large Gauge Needle in Ponseti Management of CTEV: A Modified Technique [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Introduction: Tenotomy of tendo achilles for clubfoot deformity is routinely done percutaneously with a surgical blade. This method though safe and effective, carries risk of complications such as excessive bleeding and injury to nearby neurovascular

Effects of Ultrasound-Guided Tenotomy and Debridement on Pain, Function, and Psychological Factors for Achilles Tendinopathy: A Prospective Cohort Study. [PDF]

J Orthop Res
ABSTRACT Ultrasound‐guided tenotomy and debridement is a minimally invasive treatment with a low risk of complications for individuals with chronic Achilles tendinopathy. Yet the benefits of this procedure on pain, function, and pain‐related psychological factors, as well as predictors of treatment success, remain understudied.

Anatomical Structures Responsible for CTEV Relapse after Ponseti Treatment

Children, 2022
Relapse of deformity after a successful Ponseti treatment remains a problem for the management of clubfoot. An untreated varus heel position and restricted dorsal flexion of the ankle are the main features of recurrences.

A single-center, single-blinded, randomized, parallel-group, non-inferiority trial to compare the efficacy of a 22-gauge needle versus a 15 blade to perform an Achilles tendon tenotomy in 244 clubfeet—study protocol

Trials, 2023
Background Achilles tendon tenotomy is an integral part of the Ponseti method, aimed at correcting residual equinus and lack of dorsiflexion after correction of the adductus deformity in clubfoot.

Intrinsic Tendon Regeneration After Application of Purified Exosome Product: An In Vivo Study

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2021
Background: Tendons are primarily acellular, limiting their intrinsic regenerative capabilities. This limited regenerative potential contributes to delayed healing, rupture, and adhesion formation after tendon injury.

Platelet-Rich Plasma Releasate Promotes Early Healing in Tendon After Acute Injury

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2021
Background: Acute tendon injury can limit motion and thereby inhibit tendon healing. Positive results have been found after the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to treat tendon injury; however, the early effects of PRP on tendon regeneration are not ...
