The skeletal attachment of tendons—tendon ‘entheses’

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2002
Tendon entheses can be classed as fibrous or fibrocartilaginous according to the tissue present at the skeletal attachment site. The former can be "bony" or "periosteal", depending on whether the tendon is directly attached to bone or indirectly to it via the periosteum. At fibrocartilaginous entheses, the uncalcified fibrocartilage dissipates collagen

The aging tendon

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 1997
After maturation tendons undergo many biochemical, cellular, mechanical and pathological changes that bring about a general decline in the structure and function of the tendon. This decline in the aging tendon is characterized by a reduced ability to adapt to environmental stress and loss of tissue homeostasis.

The Achilles Tendon

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2010
Achilles tendon disorders are among the most common conditions seen by sports medicine physicians. The request for radiological assessment and for radiologically assisted therapy is on the steady increase. Thus understanding the anatomy and biomechanics of the Achilles tendon is crucial to the effective radiological diagnosis and thus the management of

TENDON ADVANCEMENT AND TENDON RETROPLACEMENT.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1895
Reference is here made to advancement of tendons as distinguished from tendon resection or tendon shortening. In the latter two, the stump of the partially severed tendon furnishes the point of attachment of the portion to be brought forward. Not so, however, in tendon advancement. This operation is required as a remedy for strabismus, insufficiencies,

The normal tendon and the abnormal tendon

Joint Bone Spine, 2001
Abstract Tendons were long given little recognition by rheumatologists. Yet, their complex structure and distinctive functional characteristics have been demonstrated by an abundance of histological, biochemical, and biomechanical studies: clearly, tendons are not inert cords linking muscles to bones.

Tendon Transfers in Muscle and Tendon Loss

Hand Clinics, 1988
Tendon transfers in muscle and tendon loss offer some of the most gratifying results to both patient and surgeon. Poor results do occur at times in tendon transfer. When patients whose results were found to be less than expected were studied, the following problems were identified: 1. Acceptance of less than full passive range of motion before transfer.

Hyperuricemia in Tendons

2016
Hyperuricemia, particularly gout, and the immune inflammatory response are highly integrated. Both, long standing hyperuricemia and monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition can challenge tendon homeostasis because of their potential to cause inflammation to the host.

A Tendon Approximator

Plastic and Reconstructive surgery, 1989
A tendon approximator designed to hold tendon ends together for suturing is described. The method of use and the situations where it may be of value are described.

Tendons and Ligaments

2016
Tendons and ligaments are complex structures and have different anatomical and dynamic properties. Injury of tendons and ligaments remodel with scar formation with differences in themselves. Although scarring depends on the quality and quantity of the injured tissues, it can be qualified with appropriate rehabilitation.

Tendon injury: from biology to tendon repair

Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2015
Tendon is a crucial component of the musculoskeletal system. Tendons connect muscle to bone and transmit forces to produce motion. Chronic and acute tendon injuries are very common and result in considerable pain and disability. The management of tendon injuries remains a challenge for clinicians.
