Tendon Structure and Treatment

BACKGROUND: Rotator cuff tendinopathy (RCT) is a significant source of disability and loss of work. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been suggested to be beneficial in the treatment of RCT. PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of PRP injections on pain and shoulder functions in patients with chronic RCT. STUDY DESIGN: Ran…

The Achilles tendon is the strongest and thickest tendon in the human body. It is also the commonest tendon to rupture. It begins near the middle of the calf and is the conjoint tendon of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. The relative contribution of the two muscles to the tendon varies. Spiralisation of the fibre…

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of sonography in the detection of plantar fasciitis (PF) compared with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in subjects with inferior heel pain. METHODS: Seventy-seven patients with unilateral (n = 9) and bilateral (n = 68) heel pain were studie…

PURPOSE: To characterize the supraspinatus tendon thickness, subacromial space, and the relationship between tendon thickness and subacromial space to further elucidate the mechanisms of subacromial impingement syndrome. METHODS: In a single-blind cross-sectional study, subjects were recruited with subacromial impinge…
