Surgical Technique to Bring Down the Patellar Height and to Reconstruct the Tendon for Chronic Patellar Tendon Rupture

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2017
Although surgical treatment is the gold standard for chronic patellar tendon rupture, the technique of patellar tendon reconstruction is still difficult.

A simultaneous bilateral quadriceps and patellar tendons rupture in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing long-term hemodialysis: a case report

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background The incidence of rupture of the quadriceps or patellar tendon s is low, especially that of bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture, and it is generally considered a complication secondary to chronic systemic disorders.

Acute Achilles tendon rupture: The impact of physiological and psychological factors on function and return to activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Unfortunately, there is no guarantee of a full return to physical activity after an Achilles tendon rupture. About 20% of those who sustain the injury do not return to their previous level of physical activity.

Bioinspired Hydrogels with Broadly Programmable Mechanics for Soft‐Tissue Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sea cucumber‐inspired gelatin hydrogels are formed by directional freezing and mechanically programmed through subsequent ionic treatment. Multiscale characterization and modeling link ion‐regulated chain interactions to directional load transfer within the aligned hierarchical architecture.
