All-Inside Endoscopic Zone 1 Flexor Hallucis Longus Transfer: A Cadaveric Feasibility Study

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics
Background: Endoscopic flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon transfer addresses chronic Achilles tendon ruptures. Traditional percutaneous plantar incisions gain FHL length but risk neurovascular injury.

Rotator cuff irreparability or failure of repair (re‐tear): technical note on middle trapezius tendon transfer for reproduction of supraspinatus function

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2021
Purpose Based on its close anatomic features and nearly‐collinear force vector to those of supraspinatus muscle, the current article describes a technique of middle trapezius tendon transfer for reproduction of supraspinatus function in the context of ...

Design and Synthesis of Peptide‐Polyester Conjugates for Cell‐Mediated Scaffold Degradation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work describes polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based biomaterials engineered to degrade in response to cell‐secreted proteases. A fast‐degrading peptide (Fast) sequence is integrated into a PCL conjugate backbone to produce a biomaterial that is selectively degraded by multiple cell types compared to its scrambled control (ScrFast).

Fully Arthroscopic Anterior Latissimus Dorsi and Teres Major Transfer for Anterosuperior Irreparable Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques
A variety of treatment options have been proposed for patients with anterosuperior irreparable rotator cuff tears (ASIRCTs). The anterior latissimus dorsi (LD) tendon transfer has proven to be a viable option, because it serves as an internal rotator and

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...
