Ultrasonography- and Doppler-Guided Surgical Treatment for Insertional Achilles Tendinopathy: Results From a Case Series in a Southern Sweden County Hospital

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2023
Background: Treatment with ultrasonography (US)- and color Doppler (CD)-guided mini surgery for insertional Achilles tendinopathy has shown good clinical results in a sports medicine setting. The aim in this study was to introduce this new methodology at

A high-glucose diet affects Achilles tendon healing in rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Chronic and acute tendinopathies are difficult to treat and tendon healing is generally a very slow and incomplete process and our general understanding of tendon biology and regeneration lags behind that of muscle or bone.

Tenophages: a novel macrophage-like tendon cell population expressing CX3CL1 and CX3CR1

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2019
Tendon disorders frequently occur and recent evidence has clearly implicated the presence of immune cells and inflammatory events during early tendinopathy. However, the origin and properties of these cells remain poorly defined.

Global Responses of Il-1β-Primed 3D Tendon Constructs to Treatment with Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields

open access: yesCells, 2019
Tendinopathy is accompanied by a cascade of inflammatory events promoting tendon degeneration. Among various cytokines, interleukin-1β plays a central role in driving catabolic processes, ultimately resulting in the activation of matrix ...

Fibrillins in Tendon [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2016
Tendons among connective tissue, mainly collagen, contain also elastic fibers (EF) made of fibrillin 1, fibrillin 2 and elastin that are broadly distributed in tendons and represent 1-2% of the dried mass of the tendon. Only in the last years, studies on structure and function of EF in tendons have been performed.

Calcific tendonitis of the quadriceps tendon [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Case Reports, 2018
A 61-year-old woman presented with chronic anterior pain and stiffness in the distal left thigh. Examination revealed swelling and tenderness immediately proximal to the patella. Radiographs showed opacities in the distal anterior thigh whilst MRI identified enlargement of the distal quadriceps tendon with splayed fibres separated by solid ...

Electrospun Scaffold Micro-Architecture Induces an Activated Transcriptional Phenotype within Tendon Fibroblasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Biomaterial augmentation of surgically repaired rotator cuff tendon tears aims to improve the high failure rates (∼40%) of traditional repairs. Biomaterials that can alter cellular phenotypes through the provision of microscale topographical cues are now

Triceps Tendon Repair [PDF]

open access: yesJBJS Essential Surgical Techniques, 2018
Although triceps tendon ruptures can result from a traumatic incident, chronic overuse causing degenerative changes to the insertion and leading to a complete or partial rupture is more common. In our practice, we have found that anabolic steroid abuse by weightlifters is the most common predisposing factor. The initial diagnosis is often missed.
