Tendon and Ligament Injury
نویسنده
چکیده
The most frequently injured tendons and ligaments in the horse are those on the palmar or plantar aspect of the distal limb. For this reason, this series of presentations will focus on these injuries. Diagnosis of strain-induced tendon injuries of the equine distal limb are based on history (usually a preceding period of exercise) and the development of the signs of inflammation (pain, heat, swelling, and lameness) over the affected structure. Confirmation and semi-objective assessment of severity is provided by diagnostic ultrasound.

A new technique in spring ligament reconstruction using medial half of posterior tibial tendon is demonstrated as a means of supporting the arch. In addition a new concept of double bundle PTT reconstruction based on anatomical attachments of original PTT is presented with the goal of obtaining the full function of PTT.
متن کاملArthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament. A comparison of patellar tendon autograft and four-strand hamstring tendon autograft.
We compared the outcome of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using hamstring tendon autograft with outcome using patellar tendon autograft at 2 years after surgery. Patients had an isolated anterior cruciate ligament injury and, apart from the grafts, the arthroscopic surgical technique was identical. Prospective assessment was performed on 90 patients with isolated anterior cruciate li...
متن کاملEffect of cyclic stretching on the tensile properties of patellar tendon and medial collateral ligament in rat.
BACKGROUND Although dynamic stretching is often prescribed before exercise is undertaken, research has rarely been conducted to determine what effects dynamic stretching has on tendon and ligament injury prevention. The hypothesis is that the mechanical properties of tendon and ligament will increase in an ultimate tensile loading test after sinusoid cyclic stretching. METHODS Ten paired rat ...
متن کاملCombined surgical treatment for missed rupture of triceps tendon associated with avulsion of the ulnar collateral ligament and flexor-pronator muscle mass
Triceps tendon ruptures are rare injuries. Coexistence of ipsilateral ulnar collateral ligament injury is even rarer. Here, we describe an unusual combination injury to elbow of a 39-year-old male construction worker consisting of triceps tendon rupture, avulsion of elbow ulnar collateral ligament and flexor pronator muscle origin ipsilaterally. A simultaneous repair and reconstruction of all d...
