The authors found in the material of the National Institute of Traumatology among the 650 cases of spontaneous tendon ruptures seven cases of rupture, when an identified disease localized on the tendon was the precipitating cause. Aetiology of the rupture has been as follows: tendon tuberculosis, rheumatic tendinitis xantoma tuberosum, haemangioma and pseudocyst of the tendon. In two other cases muscle biopsy revealed a concealed myopathy (central core disease and centronuclear myopathy) that may responsible for the rupture of the tendon.

Arthroscopic Repair of the Triceps Tendon Avulsion-Double-Row Repair.

December 2024
Dr. Pimprikar's ADTOOS Clinics, Nashik, India.
Avulsion of the triceps tendon is a rare injury accounting for less than 1% of all tendon injuries. The triceps is an extensor of the elbow and causes compromised function if left untreated. Complete ruptures should be treated with early repairs for satisfactory outcomes.

Acute, traumatic distal biceps tendon ruptures are a common injury in the middle-aged athletic male population, with direct anatomic surgical repair being the most effective technique to restore maximal strength. Multiple techniques for distal biceps tendon repair have been described, including single- or dual-incision approaches and tendon fixation with cortical buttons, interference screws, suture anchors, and transosseous sutures. In this Technical Note, we demonstrate an anatomic distal biceps tendon repair technique with a single-incision approach using 2 all-suture cortical buttons.

The Ohio State University College of Medicine, Columbus, Ohio.
Background: An all-inside endoscopic flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon transfer is indicated for the treatment of chronic, full-thickness Achilles tendon defects. The aim of this procedure is to restore function of the gastrocnemius-soleus complex while avoiding the wound complications associated with open procedures.
Description: This procedure can be performed through 2 endoscopic portals, a posteromedial portal (the working portal) and a posterolateral portal (the visualization portal).
Comparison of Synovialization and Clinical Outcomes between Anterior Cruciate Ligament Anteromedial Bundle Augmentation and Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.
J Knee Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Pohang St. Mary's Hospital, Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Republic of Korea.
This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes and second-look arthroscopic findings between double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction for complete ACL rupture and anteromedial (AM) bundle augmentation with preservation of the posterolateral (PL) bundle in isolated AM bundle rupture. Between 2014 and 2021, we retrospectively analyzed 95 ACL reconstructions with at least 2 years of follow-up. Patients undergoing primary ACL reconstruction from January 2014 to June 2021 were included in the study.

J Clin Med
December 2024
Clinic of Oncology and Surgery, Faculty of Medecine, Comenius University, 81250 Bratislava, Slovakia.
This retrospective study is the only one in the last 10 years from central Europe and provides a current picture of prevalence, new diagnostic modalities, new methods of surgical treatment, and also offers new insights into post-operative care. Triceps tendon rupture is the least reported among all the tendon injuries in the literature. In general, effective treatments for tendon injuries are lacking because the understanding of tendon biology lags behind that of the other components of the musculoskeletal system.
