Repair of chronic Achilles tendon rupture using Bosworth’s technique

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2022
Background: A large number of ruptures of the Achilles tendon occurs in the watershed hypovascular region (zone II) of the tendon which is approximately 2–6 cm proximal to the insertion of tendon at calcaneum.

Experimental and Numerical Analysis of the Tendon Repair Process Using Tubular Braided Fabrics

open access: yesAUTEX Research Journal, 2018
This paper presents the experimental and numerical analysis of the potential of a braided fabric for flexor tendon repair. Numerical models of tubular braided fabrics were generated using a python script interface and imported into ABAQUS® while Flexor ...

Scleraxis-lineage cell depletion improves tendon healing and disrupts adult tendon homeostasis

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Despite the requirement for Scleraxis-lineage (ScxLin) cells during tendon development, the function of ScxLin cells during adult tendon repair, post-natal growth, and adult homeostasis have not been defined. Therefore, we inducibly depleted ScxLin cells

EGR1 Induces Tenogenic Differentiation of Tendon Stem Cells and Promotes Rabbit Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015
Background/Aims: The rate of healing failure after surgical repair of chronic rotator cuff tears is considerably high. The aim of this study was to investigate the function of the zinc finger transcription factor early growth response 1 (EGR1) in the ...

Partial Articular Supraspinatus Tendon Avulsion Repair and Patch: A Technical Note for Augmenting the Supraspinatus Reinsertion with the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, 2023
Background There is no clear consensus on the treatment of partial articular‐sided supraspinatus tendon avulsions. Debridement alone might not be sufficient to prevent further tendon degradation or alleviate patient complaints.

Superior Gluteal Reconstruction for Severe Hip Abductor Deficiency

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2019
Abductor tendon tears are one of the common causes of recalcitrant laterally based hip pain and dysfunction. In most cases, abductor tendon tears are associated with chronic nontraumatic tearing of the gluteus medius tendon.

Applications of functionally-adapted hydrogels in tendon repair

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Despite all the efforts made in tissue engineering for tendon repair, the management of tendon injuries still poses a challenge, as current treatments are unable to restore the function of tendons following injuries.
