Antioxidant Properties of Pistacia khinjuk Accelerate Healing of the Experimental Achilles Tendon Injury in Rabbits
Background: Delayed tendon healing and tendon adhesions are still found to be among the complications that occur most often after tendon repair. Pistacia khinjuk is one of the three species of Pistacia growing in Iran. Objective: In this study, the role of local injection of ethanolic extract of P. khinjuk was evaluated in healing of the experimental Achilles tendon injury in rabbits. Metho...
متن کاملConditioning of the Achilles tendon via ankle exercise improves correlations between sonographic measures of tendon thickness and body anthropometry.
Although conditioning is routinely used in mechanical tests of tendon in vitro, previous in vivo research evaluating the influence of body anthropometry on Achilles tendon thickness has not considered its potential effects on tendon structure. This study evaluated the relationship between Achilles tendon thickness and body anthropometry in healthy adults both before and after resistive ankle pl...
متن کاملThe effect of butyric acid with autogenous omental graft on healing of experimental Achilles tendon injury in rabbits
In this study, the role of local injection of butyric acid (BA) with autogenous omental graft was evaluated in healing of experimental Achilles tendon injury in rabbits. Nine adult male New Zealand rabbits were anesthetized and a partial thickness tenotomy was created on both hindlimbs. In treated group, omental graft was secured in place using BA soaked polygalactin 910 suture. In control grou...
متن کاملMRI Evaluation of Achilles Tendon Injuries
Introduction : Although it is the strongest tendon in the human body, the Achilles tendon is the most commonly injured ankle tendon. Clinical evaluation alone is often suggestive of the diagnosis of acute rupture of the Achilles tendon, which could be partial or complete. However, the clinical examination alone is not sufficient in all cases, and imaging can play a crucial role. Aim of the Work...
متن کاملSonographic measurement of Achilles tendon thickness in seronegative spondyloarthropathies.
OBJECTIVE To define the best cut-off value for identifying Achilles tendon thickening using ultrasound (US) in patients with spondyloarthropathies (SpA) and to assess its diagnostic utility in comparison with different cut-off values used in the literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS One-hundred and one subjects (55 SpA patients and 46 age and body mass index ((BMI)-matched healthy controls (HC)) w...
