Injection-induced contracture of the quadriceps femoris muscle in children.
Contracture of the quadriceps femoris in children leads to limited knee flexion.1 Fairbank and Barret2 and Hnevkovsky3 believed the contracture was congenital or secondary to progressive idiopathic fibrosis of the vastus intermedius. Lloyd-Roberts and Thomas4 stipulated that multiple injections into the thigh might cause the contracture. Proximal release in the early stage and distal release in...
متن کاملMorphometric study of tensor of vastus intermedius in South Indian population
Tensor of vastus intermedius is a newly discovered muscle located between vastus lateralis and vastus intermedius. The purpose of this study was to investigate the detailed morphology of tensor of vastus intermedius, specifically to provide data pertaining to the attachments, innervations, variation in the types and its morphometry in South Indian population. The tensor of vastus intermedius wa...
متن کاملNew insight in the architecture of the quadriceps tendon
BACKGROUND Published data regarding the structure of the quadriceps tendon are diverse. Dissection of the quadriceps muscle group revealed that beside the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius and vastus medialis a fifth muscle component- named the tensor vastus intermedius consistently fused into quadriceps tendon. It can be hypothesized that all these elements of the extensor a...
متن کاملRectus femoris and vastus intermedius fiber excursions predicted by three-dimensional muscle models.
Computer models of the musculoskeletal system frequently represent the force-length behavior of muscle with a lumped-parameter model. Lumped-parameter models use simple geometric shapes to characterize the arrangement of muscle fibers and tendon; this may inaccurately represent changes in fiber length and the resulting force-length behavior, especially for muscles with complex architecture. The...
متن کاملThe clinical manifestations and pathomechanics of contracture of the extensor mechanism of the knee.
Experience with thirty-eight Asian children and adolescents who presented with either stiffness of the knee, genu recurvatum, habitual dislocation of the patella or congenital lateral dislocation of the patella showed that all those disorders were manifestations of contracture of the extensor mechanism, which fell into two groups according to the components involved. In Group I the main compone...
