Decellularized tendon as a prospective scaffold for tendon repair

Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2017
Tendon injuries impose significant clinical burdens on healthcare systems worldwide. At present, no therapeutic methods can cure tendon injuries in an ideal manner. With the development and improvement of decellularization technology, tendon extracellular matrix (ECM) can develop into novel scaffolds with potential for repairing injured tendons. Proper

Repair of flexor tendons by intratendinous tendon suture

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1977
In a three year period, severed flexor tendons in the fingers and palm of 50 patients were repaired using an intratendinous suture method. The majority were secondary repairs, and 21 of 50 were in children less than 15 years of age. Results were satisfactory, with 79% being rated as good or excellent.

Use of a Previously Repaired Tendon for Tendon Transfer

Journal of Hand Surgery, 1987
A patient in whom a previously repaired flexor digitorum superficialis tendon was used for transfer to correct a claw deformity is described. I have found this to be possible under optimal conditions of tendon repair, thus providing the hand surgeon with another choice of donor material.

Atraumatic tendon handling during tendon repair

International Orthopaedics, 1996
Two techniques are presented for atraumatic handling of tendon ends during repair of flexor and extensor tendons. If the tendon is cleanly transected, the suture is carried out by holding the tendon in nerve holding forceps. If debridement is needed, a slice is partly cut and used to handle the tendon; the slice is then cut off and discarded.

A Review of Repaired Flexor Tendons

Journal of Hand Surgery, 1987
67 patients with 176 repaired flexor tendons have been reviewed after a mean interval of 26.4 months. 160 tendons to 100 fingers, and 16 flexor pollicis longus tendons were repaired. When evaluated by Buck-Gramcko criteria, the functional results in 92% of the fingers and 69% of the thumbs were graded as excellent or good.

Peroneal Tendon Repair With Autologus Hamstring Tendons

The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2005
Degenerated and longitudinal tears of the peroneal tendons are uncommon and may be misdiagnosed or overlooked (1). Patients with lateral ankle pain or those having frequent lateral/inversion ankle injuries must be carefully evaluated for such an injury pattern (2). Numerous techniques such as end to end repair, interposition grafts, and local tenodesis

Repair of Tendon Injuries in the Hand

Archives of Surgery, 1959
Fibrosis is the greatest enemy of function in the hand. It causes skin to be adherent to bone, and to be prone to easy ulceration with trauma. It makes the injured nerve either completely nonconducting or the cause of severe pain. It grows between fractured ends of bones, to result in nonunion.

Flexor Tendon Repair in the Neonate

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1982
Primary or delayed primary repair of flexor tendon lacerations in the digital sheath has become the accepted practice among surgeons expert in the treatment of hand injuries. The youngest patient reported in the literature we reviewed was 3 months old.

Modern Tendon Repair Techniques

Hand Clinics, 2012
Digital tendon repair is one of the most common issues in hand surgery and also one of the most vexing. A repair must withstand the forces imparted on it during early motion. Common clinical scenarios that challenge the hand surgeon are flexor tendon injuries in zone II, zone I, and extensor tendons.
