BACKGROUND: Primary tendon repair aims at increased tensile strength at the time of
mobilisation. Tendon repair and regeneration using mesenchymal stem cells have been …

PURPOSE: Exogenously administered mesenchymal stem cells and bioactive molecules
are known to enhance tendon healing. Biomolecules have been successfully delivered …

The development of bio-devices for complete regeneration of ligament and tendon tissues is
presently one of the biggest challenges in tissue engineering. Such device must …

OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the modified Kessler
technique in managing spaghetti wrist lacerations by multidisciplinary treatment. PATIENTS …

Abstract Objectives Sheep Achilles tendons are used as an effective preclinical model of
flexor tendon repair in plastic surgery, due to their biomechanical properties, which are …

Background Currently, there are no well-established suture protocols to attach fully load-
bearing scaffolds which span tendon defects between bone and muscle for repair of critical …

PURPOSE: We evaluated the fate of pluripotential stem cells adherent to a suture carrier
after being passed through tendon tissue in vitro. METHODS: FiberWire suture segments …

Background Surgeons have aimed to achieve strong repair so as to begin early active
rehabilitation programs for flexor tendon injury. Multi-strand suture techniques were …

This study compares the mechanical properties of modified Kessler and double-modified
Kessler flexor tendon repair techniques and evaluates simple modifications on both …

Objective: This study aimed to investigate if there was a link between the biomechanical
properties and the number of suture strands in repairing a rotator cuff (RC) tear in a bovine …
