Patellar tendon: From tendinopathy to rupture
Patellar tendinopathy is very common in patients complaining of anterior knee pain. Its aetiology is still unclear, but neovascularisation seems to play a role. Different treatments have been proposed overtime, from rehabilitation to platelet-rich-plasma injections, but there is no agreement on the best treatment protocol. The final stage of patellar tendinopathy is patellar tendon rupture. In ...
متن کاملOpen Patellar Tendon Debridement for Treatment of Recalcitrant Patellar Tendinopathy
BACKGROUND Patellar tendinopathy can be treated surgically for patients that have failed at least 1 year of nonoperative treatment who continue to have debilitating symptoms. Patellar tendinopathy can cause significant functional deficits, yet little has been reported about the operative treatment of patellar tendinopathy. HYPOTHESIS A combined arthroscopic and open surgical technique for the...
متن کاملUnderstanding Achilles Tendinopathy and Tendon Rehabilitation through the Achilles Tendon Diametral Strain Response to Eccentric Exercise
We have previously demonstrated that eccentric exercise results in an immediate decrease in tendon thickness in healthy young adults [3]. Based on in vitro evidence, it was proposed that the marked diametral strain response (≈ 20%) observed in vivo primarily reflected the radial extrusion of fluid from the tendon [4, 5]. Such convective fluid movement likely plays a vital role in tendon homeost...
متن کاملggstThe role of tendon microcirculation in Achilles and patellar tendinopathy
Tendinopathy is of distinct interest as it describes a painful tendon disease with local tenderness, swelling and pain associated with sonographic features such as hypoechogenic texture and diameter enlargement. Recent research elucidated microcirculatory changes in tendinopathy using laser Doppler flowmetry and spectrophotometry such as at the Achilles tendon, the patellar tendon as well as at...
متن کاملMechanical properties of the patellar tendon in elite volleyball players with and without patellar tendinopathy.
BACKGROUND Although differences in mechanical properties between symptomatic and healthy tendons have been observed for the Achilles tendon, the impact of tendinopathy on patellar tendon mechanics is not fully documented. The aim of the present case-control study was to assess the mechanical properties of the tendon and jump performance in elite athletes with and without patellar tendinopathy. ...
