The relationship between in vivo limb and in vitro tendon mechanics after injury: a potential novel clinical tool for monitoring tendon repair.

Abstract:

REASONS FOR PERFORMING THE STUDY: Highly prevalent superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) injury results in compromised tendon function through fibrosis and high frequency of re-injury due to altered biomechanical function. This study investigated the consequences of SDF tendinopathy on limb mechanics in relation to the mechanical properties of injured tendon. OBJECTIVES: To develop and validate a noninvasive in vivo assessment of tendon mechanics to investigate the effect of recent SDFT i...
