Tendons and ligaments are complex structures and have different anatomical and dynamic properties. Injury of tendons and ligaments remodel with scar formation with differences in themselves. Although scarring depends on the quality and quantity of the injured tissues, it can be qualified with appropriate rehabilitation.

Research Progress on the Preparation and Application of Decellularized Tendons
Tendons connect animal skeletons to skeletal muscles, playing a crucial role in weight-bearing and maintaining motor functions. After decellularization, tendon extracellular matrix (tECM) retains the physicochemical characteristics similar to those of ...

Tendons among connective tissue, mainly collagen, contain also elastic fibers (EF) made of fibrillin 1, fibrillin 2 and elastin that are broadly distributed in tendons and represent 1-2% of the dried mass of the tendon. Only in the last years, studies on structure and function of EF in tendons have been performed.

Calcific tendonitis of the quadriceps tendon [PDF]
A 61-year-old woman presented with chronic anterior pain and stiffness in the distal left thigh. Examination revealed swelling and tenderness immediately proximal to the patella. Radiographs showed opacities in the distal anterior thigh whilst MRI identified enlargement of the distal quadriceps tendon with splayed fibres separated by solid ...

The structure of a tendon is an important example of complexity of ECM three-dimensional organization. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a macromolecular network with both structural and regulatory functions. ECM components belong to four major types of macromolecules: the collagens, elastin, proteoglycans, and noncollagenous glycoproteins. Tendons are

Estimation of ultimate stress in external FRP tendons [PDF]
In a prestressed concrete beam with external tendons, the tendon stress depends on the member deformation, and it cannot be determined from section analysis alone as in the bonded case.
