Biomechanical analysis of the brachioradialis as a donor in tendon transfer.
Anatomic and biomechanical properties of the passive brachioradialis muscle were investigated to understand the limited excursion of this muscle seen during tendon transfer surgery. First, architectural measurements were performed on three fiber bundles obtained from four regions of the brachioradialis (10 specimens) chosen to represent the range of muscle fiber lengths across the brachioradial...
متن کاملThe effect of repair of the lacertus fibrosus on distal biceps tendon repairs: a biomechanical, functional, and anatomic study.
BACKGROUND To date, repair of the lacertus in distal biceps tendon ruptures, recommended by some, has not been evaluated. The goal of these biomechanical experiments was to evaluate the degree to which its repair increases the strength of a distal biceps tendon repair. HYPOTHESIS An intact or repaired lacertus fibrosus will increase the strength of a distal biceps tendon repair. STUDY DESIG...
متن کاملBiomechanical properties of the brachioradialis muscle: Implications for surgical tendon transfer.
PURPOSE To understand the mechanical properties of the brachioradialis (BR) muscle and to use this information to simulate a BR-to-flexor pollicis longus (FPL) tendon transfer for restoration of lateral pinch. METHODS The BR mechanical properties were measured intraoperatively. Passive elastic properties were measured by elongating BR muscles at constant velocity while they were attached dire...
متن کاملAllograft tendon interposition and brachioradialis tendon stability augmentation in revision surgery for failed Darrach distal ulna resections.
Achilles allograft interposition is one treatment alternative for failed Darrach distal ulna resections, good results have been reported with its use but concern remains with the stability of the distal ulnar stump. The use of brachioradialis tendon passed through the radius and then divided in to 2 branches to pass over the volar and dorsal aspect of the ulnar stump with the Achilles tendon in...
متن کاملEvaluation of tendon healing using fibroblast like synoviocytes in rabbits: A biomechanical study
Tendon never restores the complete biological and mechanical properties after healing. Several techniques are available for tissue-engineered biological augmentation for tendon healing like stem cells. Recently, synovium has been investigated as a source of cells for tissue engineering. In the present study, we investigated potentials of fibroblast like synoviocytes (FLSs) in tendon healing. Si...
