Inducement of tissue regeneration of harvested hamstring tendons in a rabbit model
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine if the use of fascia lata as a tendon regeneration guide (placed into the tendon canal following harvesting the semitendinosus tendon) would improve the incidence of tissue regeneration and prevent fatty degeneration of the semitendinosus muscle. MATERIALS AND METHODS Bilateral semitendinosus tendons were harvested from rabbits using a t...
متن کاملMuscle contributions to medial tibiofemoral compartment contact loading following ACL reconstruction using semitendinosus and gracilis tendon grafts
BACKGROUND The muscle-tendon properties of the semitendinosus (ST) and gracilis (GR) are substantially altered following tendon harvest for the purpose of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). This study adopted a musculoskeletal modelling approach to determine how the changes to the ST and GR muscle-tendon properties alter their contribution to medial compartment contact loading wi...
متن کاملHistological Evaluation of Regenerated Semitendinosus Tendon a Minimum of 6 Years After Harvest for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
BACKGROUND Semitendinosus (ST) and/or gracilis (G) autografts are the most used grafts for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery. The tendons have been shown to be able to regenerate but with focal areas of scar tissue in the short term. There are no long-term histological studies of the regenerated tendons. HYPOTHESIS In the long term, the regenerated ST tendon normalizes and has a simila...
متن کامل[Congenital ptosis associated with fatty infiltration of levator eyelid muscle].
PURPOSE To quantify the fat in the levator muscle of patients with congenital ptosis, as related to clinical and epidemiological aspects of this disease. METHODS Twenty-two levator muscle samples of the superior eyelid from patients with congenital ptosis were morphometrically evaluated with aim of establishing a relationship between the fat quantity and age, sex, ptosis degree and levator mu...
متن کاملShort‐term disuse promotes fatty acid infiltration into skeletal muscle
BACKGROUND Many physiological and/or pathological conditions lead to muscle deconditioning, a well-described phenomenon characterized by a loss of strength and muscle power mainly due to the loss of muscle mass. Fatty infiltrations, or intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), are currently well-recognized components of muscle deconditioning. Despite the fact that IMAT is present in healthy human sk...
