The aim of this study was to investigate the length changes of carpal ligaments when loaded in full extension in vivo. We obtained computed tomography scans of the right wrists in three positions for six volunteers: neutral; 75° extension; and 75° extension with a further 10° of radial deviation. Nine ligaments were measured and analysed with computer modelling.

Purpose: Pulleys have an important role in digital flexion, but little is known about how the strength of a tendon repair is affected by a major pulley. We evaluated the difference in strengths of flexor tendon repairs in the pulley area when the pulley was intact or divided in a chicken tendon injury model.
Methods: In each of 100 long toes of 50 Leghorn chickens, a complete, transverse laceration of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon was made in the region of the A2 pulley and was repaired surgically.

The development of digital oedema, adhesion formation, and resistance to digital motion at days 0, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 14 after primary flexor tendon repairs using 102 long toes of 51 Leghorn chickens was studied. Oedema presented as tissue swelling from days 3 to 7, which peaked at day 3. After day 7, oedema was manifest as hardening of subcutaneous tissue.
