Dynamic Ultrasound Imaging of Extensor Pollicis Brevis Hypertrophy in Proximal Intersection Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Dynamic ultrasound revealed extensor pollicis brevis hypertrophy displacing second compartment tendons, suggesting a novel friction‐based mechanism for proximal intersection syndrome. This case highlights the role of dynamic sonography in identifying motion‐dependent tendon interactions underlying overuse‐related wrist pain.

Versican splice variant messenger RNA expression in normal human Achilles tendon and tendinopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Versican is the principal large proteoglycan expressed in mid-tendon, but its role in tendon pathology is unknown. Our objective was to define the expression of versican isoform splice variant messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in normal Achilles tendons,

Chronic Morel‐Lavallée Lesion Treated With Percutaneous Ultrasonic Debridement

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case describes the use of Tenex in a 68‐year‐old female with a 10‐year history of a Morel‐Lavallée lesion. The device uses high‐frequency ultrasonic waves that percutaneously debride dystrophic musculoskeletal calcifications. Percutaneous ultrasonic debridement is a minimally invasive intervention to be considered for managing symptoms associated ...
