The 12-in-1 procedure for the treatment of congenital idiopathic clubfoot
(2008)The purpose of this study was to assess the long-term results of an extended soft tissue release in a single procedure, for the treatment of congenital idiopathic clubfoot. Seventeen patients with 22 congenital idiopathic ... -
Bayesian identification of the tendon fascicle's structural composition using finite element models for helical geometries
(2017)Despite extensive experimental and computational investigations, the accurate determination of the structural composition of biological tendons remains elusive. Here we infer the structural compositions of tendons by ... -
Biomechanical comparison of two medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction techniques: Quadriceps tendon fixation versus single-tunnel patella fixation with gracilis autograft did not differ in load to failure and stiffness
(2021)Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ultimate failure load and stiffness of two patellar fixation techniques for medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction: (1) quadriceps tendon fixation ... -
The effect of early motion on tibial tunnel widening after anterior cruciate ligament replacement using hamstring tendon grafts
(2004)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that early motion increases tibial tunnel enlargement in patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) replacement with hamstring autograft. Cohort analytic ... -
An Experimental Model on the Biomechanical Behaviour of the Flexor Tendons in New Zealand Rabbits
(2017)BACKGROUND: In order to introduce new pharmacological agents with the intent to inhibit the adhesion formation, it is important to test such products on laboratory animals under a protocol that can evaluate the quantitative ... -
Fiber plasticity and loss of ellipticity in soft composites under non-monotonic loading
(2022)In this work, we relate fiber plasticity in soft composites to the loss of ellipticity of the governing equations of equilibrium of a composite under non-monotonic uniaxial loading. The loss of ellipticity strongly indicates ... -
Higher Infection Rate after ACL Reconstruction with Hamstrings Tendon Autografts Compared with Bone Patellar Bone Tendon Autografts: A Review
(2022)Infection after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a rare but devastating complication resulting in a deleterious impact on knee function as well as an increased related cost for treatment and rehabilitation for ... -
Management of septic arthritis after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a standard surgical protocol
(2017)Background To report the incidence of septic arthritis after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and management of this complication using a specific treatment protocol. Methods All primary ACL reconstructions ... -
No difference in osteoarthritis after surgical and non-surgical treatment of ACL-injured knees after 10 years
(2016)Purpose: Aim of this study was to record and compare the functional and activity level as well as the manifestations of osteoarthritis after isolated ACL ruptures between patients with conservative treatment and ACL ... -
Spaghetti wrist: Transverse injury, axial incision, layered microsurgical reconstruction
(2021)Introduction: Among various patterns of complex injuries of the wrist and forearm, “spaghetti wrist” refers to an extensive volar forearm laceration, in which several of the 12 tendons, 2 major nerves and 2 major arteries ... -
Transosseous application of low-intensity ultrasound at the tendon-bone interface affects the healing rate and up-regulates simultaneously the expression of collagen type i and tRNAGly
(2008)The present study investigates the effect of transosseous low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LiUS) during lingamentization process on the healing at tendon graft-bone interface in rabbits. Analysis of the RT-PCR products ...
