Suture Anchor Repair of Quadriceps Tendon Rupture
Knee extensor mechanism rupture is an uncommon, but significant, injury. The inability to actively extend the knee precludes normal gait. Quadriceps tendon injuries usually result from a simple fall in middle-aged men.1 Although low-energy fall mechanism of injury is most common, spontaneous rupture tends to occur in a subset of medical conditions (Table).2,3 Patients with quadriceps tendon rup...
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 کاملOpen Repair of Quadriceps Tendon With Suture Anchors and Semitendinosus Tendon Allograft Augmentation
Quadriceps tendinopathy in an increasingly recognized diagnosis can lead to quadriceps tendon rupture, especially in the older population. It can be caused by repeated micro trauma or also predisposed by systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus and connective tissue disorders that can in turn lead to extensor mechanism deficits. Although a trial of conservative treatment is advocated, operat...
متن کاملAchilles tendon suture deteriorates tendon capillary blood flow with sustained tissue oxygen saturation – an animal study
BACKGROUND Treatment of ruptured Achilles tendons currently constitutes of conservative early functional treatment or surgical treatment either by open or minimal invasive techniques. We hypothesize that an experimental Achilles tendon suture in an animal model significantly deteriorates Achilles tendon microcirculation immediately following suturing. METHODS Fifteen Achilles tendons of eight...
متن کاملQuadriceps Tendon Repair Using Knotless Anchors and Suture Tape
Repair of a torn quadriceps tendon is necessary to restore the extensor mechanism of the knee. Traditional repair involves transosseous sutures tied over bone bridges on the inferior pole of the patella. Suture anchor repair has been shown to be stronger than transosseous repair and facilitates a smaller incision. Suture tape can improve the strength of the suture-tendon interface, and when com...
