Resonance frequency in patellar tendon [PDF]

open access: possibleScandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2007
The aim of this study was to the measure resonance frequency of the patellar tendon in order to determine whether the resonance frequency exists in the soft tissue of the human body. A vibrator was attached to the medial aspect of the tibia of 10 healthy subjects to provide different frequencies of vibration, and an accelerometer was attached to the ...

Patellar Tendon Ruptures

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1996
Rupture of the patellar tendon is a relatively infrequent, yet disabling, injury, which is most commonly seen in patients less than 40 years of age. It tends to occur during athletic activities when a violent contraction of the quadriceps muscle group is resisted by the flexed knee.

Quadriceps and Patellar Tendon Ruptures

Journal of Knee Surgery, 2013
The diagnosis of quadriceps and patellar tendon ruptures requires a high index of suspicion and thorough history-taking to assess for medical comorbidities that may predispose patients to tendon degeneration. Radiographic assessment with plain films supplemented by ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging when the work-up is equivocal further aids ...

Neglected rupture of the patellar tendon

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1999
Neglected rupture of the patellar tendon is a rare but well recognised complication of knee trauma. We present the case of a 43-year-old man who sustained a complete rupture of the patellar tendon of his left knee following a fall. Clinical diagnosis was delayed by 2 months and was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging.

Patellar Tendon Shortening

2020
In patella alta associated with an excessively long patella tendon, and without an abnormal tibial tuberosity to trochlear groove distance (TT-TG), it may be more logical to shorten the patellar tendon than to distalize the tibial tubercle. We have therefore developed a technique to correct this anomaly.

Patellar Tendon Ruptures

Southern Medical Journal, 1999
Isolated rupture of the patellar tendon is a rare injury. Often occurring during a fall in 20- and 30-year olds, patients may have a preexisting medical condition (eg, history of steroid use) or a history of repetitive microtrauma to the knee. A high-riding patella on physical examination and radiographs is pathognomonic.Immediate orthopaedic referral ...

Patellar Tendon Rupture Following a Patellar Fracture

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2012
The patient was a 57-year-old woman who was referred to a physical therapist in an outpatient setting 8 weeks following an open reduction internal fixation procedure for a left patellar fracture following a fall where the patient landed directly on her left knee in a flexed position.

Human patellar-tendon rupture

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1977
The first biomechanical analysis of a human patellar-tendon rupture during actual sports competition is reported. Cinematographic data for analysis were collected at a national weight-lifting championship. Dynamic equations to mathematically model the lifter were developed to compute time course and magnitudes of hip, knee and ankle-joint moments of ...

Gene transfer to the patellar tendon

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 1997
AbstractGrowth factors have the potential to enhance native repair responses in ligamentous lesions. However, methods for applying these cytokines to sites of injury for extended periods are lacking. We suggest that local transfer of genes which encode the relevant healing factors merits investigation as a potential solution to this problem.
