Endoscopic Transtendinous Repair for Partial-Thickness Proximal Hamstring Tendon Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2014
Partial tears of the proximal hamstring tendon can successfully be managed with tendon repair in cases of failed conservative management. As in partial-thickness gluteus medius repair, a transtendinous technique can be used to repair partial-thickness ...

Stiffness‐Programmable Origami Robots With Tendon‐Driven Actuation via Multimaterial 3D Printing

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Motion diversity is achieved in a tendon‐driven origami robot through programmable stiffness rather than modified actuation. Multimaterial 3D printing embeds soft creases, modular inserts redirect identical tendon inputs into distinct behaviors, and variable‐stiffness inserts enable real‐time switching.

Arthroscopic 4-Anchor Double-Pulley Suture-Bridge Repair of Large Rotator Cuff Tear

Arthroscopy Techniques
Currently, suture bridge (SB) is a popular way to treat large rotator cuff tears. However, the restricted number of sutures used for tendon fixation, the knotted medial row, and the excessive number of tendon holes created from suture hook piercing are ...

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Rotator Cuff Tears at the Musculotendinous Junction: Classification and Surgical Options for Repair and Reconstruction

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017
Although uncommon, rotator cuff tears that occur medially at the musculotendinous junction can result from acute trauma, anatomic force imbalance, or medial row cuff failure following a previous rotator cuff repair.

Chiral Nanoparticles Suppress Inflammatory Infiltration to Promote Extracellular Matrix Remodeling for Ectopia Lentis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
L‐cysteine‐configured chiral polyurethane nanoparticles suppress ocular inflammation and reduce extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation in ectopia lentis by regulating macrophages polarization and inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathway. By promoting zonular fiber‐associated protein restoration and tissue repair, this minimally invasive ...

Long-term functional outcomes of augmented primary repair using the peroneus brevis tendon for traumatic Achilles tendon ruptures: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Achilles tendon rupture is increasingly common and may result in significant functional impairment. Intraoperative findings such as frayed tendon ends, poor tendon quality, and larger tendon gaps may compromise the reliability of primary end ...
