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

open access: yesBMC 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.

Peroneus Longus Autograft Harvest and Preparation for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The peroneus longus tendon (PLT) has emerged as a promising autograft option for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction because of its favorable biomechanical properties, consistent graft diameter, and minimal donor‐site morbidity; however, detailed descriptions of graft harvesting and preparation techniques remain limited within literature.

The “McFL‐LARS” Hybrid Technique: Fascia Lata Autograft and Synthetic Reinforcement for Combined Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using fascia lata autograft is a validated technique but remains limited by graft diameter or by the need to harvest a hamstring tendon. This report describes a novel hybrid approach, the “McFL‐LARS” hybrid technique, combining fascia lata autograft with a ligament advanced reinforcement system ...

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction With a Single Femoral Tunnel Using Rectus Femoris and Semitendinosus Autografts

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe a reproducible, anatomically based technique for combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterolateral corner reconstruction using a single femoral tunnel and 2 autografts: rectus femoris and semitendinosus. Part of the rectus femoris and semitendinosus grafts is prepared for anatomic ACL reconstruction, and a shared femoral

Increased versican content is associated with tendinosis pathology in the patellar tendon of athletes with jumper's knee

open access: yes, 2007
Expansion of the extracellular matrix is a prominent but poorly characterized feature of tendinosis. The present study aimed to characterize the extent and distribution of the large aggregating proteoglycan versican in patients with patellar tendinosis ...

Patellar tendinopathy: optimizing outcomes of exercise therapy using a comprehensive approach to tendon health

open access: yes, 2020
Gravare Silbernagel, KarinPatellar tendinopathy is chronic, painful, overuse injury to the patellar tendon. It is rampant among jumping athletes, with 11.8-14.4% of recreational and 32-45% of elite volleyball and basketball players reporting symptoms ...

Rectus Femoris Autograft Harvesting: Tips and Tricks

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The rectus femoris tendon has recently emerged as a potential graft option for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction because of its favorable biomechanical properties, substantial graft length, and minimally invasive harvest characteristics.

Atraumatic bilateral patellar tendon rupture in a patient receiving steroid therapy

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020
Atraumatic bilateral patellar tendon rupture is a rare entity. It is usually due to systemic or local disorders causing tendon degeneration. Early diagnosis and surgical treatment are crucial for recovery of knee functions.

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

open access: yesBMEMat, 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.
