A Biomechanical Analysis of the Interlock Suture and a Modified Kessler-Loop Lock Flexor Tendon Suture
OBJECTIVE In this work, we attempted to develop a modified single-knot Kessler-loop lock suture technique and compare the biomechanical properties associated with this single-knot suture technique with those associated with the conventional modified Kessler and interlock suture techniques. METHODS In this experiment, a total of 18 porcine flexor digitorum profundus tendons were harvested and ...
متن کاملA method of flexor tendon suture.
The work of Potenza (1962), and later work from Birdsell, Tustanoff and Lindsay (1966) and Dodd, Sigel and Dunn (1966) using radioisotopes, have shown that only sheath tissues provide active healing elements. The tendon is united by fibroblasts produced from the sheath which invade the injured area. Collagen is laid down initially in an irregular pattern and later is reorientated along the line...
متن کاملTendon split lengthening technique for flexor hallucis longus tendon rupture
BACKGROUND Flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon rupture is a challenging injury to lead with clawing of the great toe when the FHL tendon is repaired too tight. When the diagnosis is delayed, the tendon ends may not be opposable because of contracture or poor tendon tissue. METHODS A technique to reconstruct FHL tendon rupture without a free tendon graft is described. A split tendon lengthenin...
متن کاملFlexor Tendon Injuries: II. Operative Technique.
The repair of flexor tendons (zones I and II) is a technique-intensive surgical undertaking. It requires a strong understanding of the anatomy of the tendon sheath and the normal relationship between the pulleys and the flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor digitorum profundus tendons in the digit. Meticulous exposure, careful tendon retrieval, and atraumatic repair are extremely important,...
متن کاملFlexor Tendon Repair
During the last 20 years there have been significant innovations in injury repair and aftercare for patients who sustain zone 2 flexor tendon injuries. Improvements in our understanding of the mechanisms of repair and the variables that impact the function of the repair site have resulted in outcome improvements. The purpose of this article is to review advances in flexor tendon surgery and to ...
