Background: The Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus (ECRL) and the Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis (ECRB) are muscles of the posterior forearm compartment. variations in this area of the forearm are common and are usually diagnosed during surgery. Sometimes these variations are symptomatic and can be helpful in clinical procedures such as surgery. Diagnosis and identification of abnormalities can be ...

Background: Reconstructions of acute acromioclavicular (AC) dislocations have been thought to result in superioroutcomes than chronic dislocations. The use of tendon graft in reconstructions has demonstrated favorablebiomechanical properties. To determine whether utilizing tendon graft during repair of acute AC dislocations results insuperior outcomes and lower complication ra...

objective: tendon never returns to its complete biological and mechanical properties after repair. bone marrow and, recently, adipose tissue have been used as sources of mesenchymal stem cells which have been proven to enhance tendon healing. in the present study, we compared the effects of allotransplantation of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells (bmscs) and adipose derived stromal ...

introduction: traumatic ruptures of the biceps tendon are rare, but serious, and usually involve the long head of the proximal insertion. rupture of the distal tendon account for only 3% of all biceps tendon ruptures. a history of tendonitis, overuse, or anabolic steroid abuse may predispose tendons to rupture. surgical repair, followed by a comprehensive rehabilitation program, was indicated t...

Abstract In this study, the dynamics of tendon/top tension riser (TTR) system a tension-leg platform (TLP) are investigated through an experiment and by using absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). First, model test TLP is conducted in water tank Harbin Engineering University to examine motion response dynamic characteristics tendon TTR. The scale ratio set 1: 66.3. Then, on basis ANCF, ...

Objectives- Hydroxyproline is a specific amino acid of collagen which is widely used to estimate the collagen content in biological specimens. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of the Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) on tendon gap healing using two different scaffold made from subcutaneous fascia and polypropylene tube. Design- Experimental study Animals - 16 young adult Guinea pigs...

There is an increasing need to determine accurately the strength properties of tendons for an effective ground control on mines and underground structures as well as on modelling simulations. The strength properties of cables, used as cable bolts, have been evaluated mainly by their ultimate tensile strength, as this kind of test can be carried out in the field as well as in the laboratory. Onl...

Objective- To investigate the effect of intratendinous injection of bMSCs on the rate and extent of tendon healing after primary repair in a rabbit model. Design- Experimental study. Animals- Twenty seven skeletally mature New Zealand white rabbits weighing 1.8- 2.5 kg were used. Twenty rabbits were used as the experimental animals, and seven others were used as a source of bone marrow-derived ...

Twelve left camel forelimbs were collected, and ultrasonography was performed at five different levels around the metacarpal region. Limbs were then cut in the transverse plane at levels corresponding to the ultrasound images. Transverse and sagittal plane images were taken at each of the five levels, keeping all ultrasound imaging factors constant. Echogenicity, diameter, width and cross secti...

Tendon and tendon-bone junction injuries, while heal, have high re-tear rates. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have great appeal for the promotion of tendon and tendon-bone junction healing because of their high proliferation rate, multi-potency and relative ease of isolation from various tissues. Tendon stem cells have been identified recently and could be an alternative new cell source for tend...
