Sonographic Patellar and Quadriceps Tendon Length Pre‐ and Post‐Autograft Harvest: Reliability and Concurrent Validity

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extensor mechanism autografts used for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, namely bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and quadriceps tendon (QT), may result in harvest‐site tendon elongation. Extended field of view (EFOV) ultrasound imaging has the potential to evaluate changes in tendon length, but the reliability and validity of these ...

Association between increased signal intensity at the proximal patellar tendon and patellofemoral geometry in community-based asymptomatic middle-aged adults: a cross-sectional study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Histological and epidemiological data suggest that increased signal intensity at the proximal patellar tendon on magnetic resonance imaging is a response to tendon loading.

Estrogen and Progesterone Exhibit Distinct Yet Coordinated Roles in the Regulation of Tendon Extracellular Matrix Remodeling

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is required for the proper healing, strengthening, and maintenance of tendon tissue. There are well‐documented sex differences in tendon injury rates and healing outcomes, often attributed to either innate differences in tissue structure and resident cell signaling or the influence of sex hormones ...

Collagen V Influences Homeostatic Maintenance of Patellar Tendon Failure Properties in Mature Female Mice

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The collagenous matrix of tendon provides mechanical integrity, allowing the tissue to withstand large tensile forces. While collagen I‐containing fibrils provide the major backbone of the tendon matrix, interactions with other collagen types are critical for matrix formation and maintenance.

Patient‐Specific 3D‐Printed Drill Guides for an Ovine Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation Model

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proper alignment between donor and recipient cartilage in osteochondral allograft transplantation supports tissue integration and the formation of a stable articulating surface. This study evaluated the use of patient‐specific 3D‐printed drill guides to improve alignment in an ovine model of osteochondral allograft transplantation when used in
