Tendon injury: from biology to tendon repair
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2015Tendon is a crucial component of the musculoskeletal system. Tendons connect muscle to bone and transmit forces to produce motion. Chronic and acute tendon injuries are very common and result in considerable pain and disability. The management of tendon injuries remains a challenge for clinicians.

Allograft Tendon for Second-Stage Tendon Reconstruction
Hand Clinics, 2012Tendons are made of compact dense collagen fibers with only sparse cellularity and naturally low immunogenicity. Allogenic tendons may be preserved through deep freezing methods and retain excellent mechanical properties after revitalization. Allogenic tendons were used in 22 patients (30 tendons) for second-stage tendon reconstruction in the hand ...

Diseases of the Tendons and Tendon Sheaths
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2014Contracted flexor tendon leading to flexural deformity is a common congenital defect in cattle. Arthrogryposis is a congenital syndrome of persistent joint contracture that occurs frequently in Europe as a consequence of Schmallenberg virus infection of the dam.

Active tendon implants in flexor tendon reconstruction
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1988Forty-five active flexor tendon implants were evaluated after placement in scarred tendon beds of digits II through V. The implant is constructed of silicone rubber with a Dacron core, terminating in a loop proximally and a metal plate distally. Modification of the implant during the period of study has improved its reliability and longevity.

Journal of Hand Surgery, 1988
Significant changes in the concepts of tendon physiology and tendon healing have occurred in the last decade. Nevertheless, they reflect questions and controversies which date back many hundreds of years. Investigators and clinicians of today must recognise that, like their predecessors with an interest in flexor tendon surgery, they will contribute to

TENDON ADVANCEMENT AND TENDON RETROPLACEMENT.
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1895Reference is here made to advancement of tendons as distinguished from tendon resection or tendon shortening. In the latter two, the stump of the partially severed tendon furnishes the point of attachment of the portion to be brought forward. Not so, however, in tendon advancement. This operation is required as a remedy for strabismus, insufficiencies,

Tendon Reconstruction in Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction
Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2002Successful treatment of posterior tibial tendon dysfunction depends on accurate staging and the appropriate selection of surgical procedures. Magnetic resonance imaging is the most sensitive diagnostic modality for evaluating the tendon and is also the best predictor of clinical outcome following surgery.

Tendon Transfers in Muscle and Tendon Loss
Hand Clinics, 1988Tendon transfers in muscle and tendon loss offer some of the most gratifying results to both patient and surgeon. Poor results do occur at times in tendon transfer. When patients whose results were found to be less than expected were studied, the following problems were identified: 1. Acceptance of less than full passive range of motion before transfer.
