Decellularized human tendon-bone grafts for composite flexor tendon reconstruction: a cadaveric model of initial mechanical properties.
PURPOSE After complex hand trauma, restoration of tendon strength is challenging. Tendon insertion tears typically heal as fibrous scars after surgical reconstruction and create a weak point at the tendon-bone interface. In addition, major tendon loss may overwhelm the amount of available autograft for reconstruction. An off-the-shelf product may help address these challenges. We hypothesized t...
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 ...
متن کاملFlexor tendon repair.
Healing canine flexor tendons treated with either total immobilization, delayed protected mobilization, or early protected mobilization was studied by biomechanical, microangiographic, biochemical, and histologic techniques at intervals through 12 weeks. The healing characteristics of the early mobilization tendons showed higher tensile strengths and improved gliding function than the delayed m...
متن کاملFlexor tendon injuries.
What are the causes of fl exor tendon injuries? Flexor tendon injuries are most commonly caused by a sharp cut to the fi nger or palm. Rupture of the attachment of the tendon to the fi nger can also occur and is commonly associated with recreational sports (such as tackling in football when the tackler’s fi nger becomes entangled in the opponent’s jersey). Flexor tendon injuries can also occur ...
متن کاملThe revitalisation of flexor tendon allografts with bone marrow stromal cells and mechanical stimulation
OBJECTIVES The present study describes a novel technique for revitalising allogenic intrasynovial tendons by combining cell-based therapy and mechanical stimulation in an ex vivo canine model. METHODS Specifically, canine flexor digitorum profundus tendons were used for this study and were divided into the following groups: (1) untreated, unprocessed normal tendon; (2) decellularised tendon; ...
