1. Local treatment with ascorbic acid accelerates recovery of post-sutured Achilles tendon in male Wistar rats
Tendon rupture is a very frequent accident involving average people and high-performance athletes. Clinical studies describe tendon recovery as a painful and slow process involving different biochemical and histological events. Ascorbic acid (AA) is a potent antioxidant as well as an important cofactor for collagen synthesis. In the current study, we evaluat

2. High voltage pulsed current in collagen realignment, synthesis, and angiogenesis after Achilles tendon partial rupture
ABSTRACT Objective To verify the efficacy of high voltage pulsed current in collagen realignment and synthesis and in angiogenesis after the partial rupturing of the Achilles tendon in rats. Method Forty male Wistar rats were randomized into four groups of 10 animals each: sham, cathodic stimulation, anodic stimulation, and alternating stimulation. Their A

3. Can transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation improve achilles tendon healing in rats?
BACKGROUND: Tendon injury is one of the most frequent injuries in sports activities. TENS is a physical agent used in the treatment of pain but its influence on the tendon's healing process is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of TENS on the healing of partial rupture of the Achilles tendon in rats. METHOD: Sixty Wistar rats were submitted

4. Biomechanical comparison of the four-strand cruciate and Strickland techniques in animal tendons
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare two four-strand techniques: the traditional Strickland and cruciate techniques. METHODS: Thirty-eight Achilles tendons were removed from 19 rabbits and were assigned to two groups based on suture technique (Group 1, Strickland suture; Group 2, cruciate repair). The sutured tendons were subjected to con

5. Efeitos do uso de antiinflamatório e do exercício aeróbico sobre a regeneração tecidual e perfil biomecânico do tendão calcâneo de ratos após ruptura completa / Effects of antinflamatory and aerobic exercise on the tissue regeneration and biomechanical profile of the achilles tendon of rats after complete rupture
Ruptura do tendão calcâneo é uma das lesões tendíneas mais frequentes. Embora a maioria dos trabalhos sugira que o exercício seja benéfico na cicatrização tendínea, não há consenso sobre o efeito do antiinflamatório neste contexto. Trabalhos experimentais tentam reproduzir lesão aguda deste tendão, em diferentes espécies animais. Neste estudo

6. Study of the low level laser effect on angiogenesis in partial rupture of achilles tendon (tendo calcaneus) in rats. / Estudo dos efeitos do laser de baixa intensidade na angiogênese em ruptura parcial do tendão calcâneo de ratos.
A proposta desse estudo foi analisar os efeitos do laser AsGaAl, de 660 nm, com 10 mW e 40 mW de potência de saída, aplicado durante 10 segundos, no processo de angiogênese e qualidade de reparo após lesão parcial do tendão calcâneo de ratos. Foram utilizados 104 ratos machos, sendo que 96 foram submetidos à lesão com a queda de um peso de 186 grama

7. Bilateral rupture of the Achilles tendon in patients on steroid therapy.
Three patients are presented who sustained bilateral rupture of the Achilles tendon while on systemic steroid therapy for chest disease; a fourth patient with polymyalgia rheumatica on steroids is also presented. This is further evidence that tendon rupture can be a direct complication of steroid treatment. The English-language literature on bilateral Achill

8. Achilles tendon rupture: an underrated complication of corticosteroid treatment.
Ten patients attending outpatient clinics who were taking oral corticosteroids ruptured their Achilles tendon in the course of 12 years. It is suggested that Achilles tendon rupture is a complication of corticosteroid treatment.

9. Spontaneous rupture of the Achilles tendon in a patient with gout.
A 49-year-old man with long-standing gout suffered a spontaneous rupture of the Achilles tendon. Surgical repair was performed, and gouty tophi were found in the severed end of the tendon. The possible causes of this spontaneous rupture are discussed.

10. Multiple tendon rupture in systemic lupus erythematosus: case report and review of the literature.
Tendon rupture in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a rare complication that appears to occur in patients receiving corticosteroid therapy. A case is presented with sequential bilateral rupture of Achilles tendon and unilateral rupture of a patellar tendon. Six more published cases are reviewed. Tendon rupture in SLE has affected both males and females b

12. Pefloxacin-Induced Achilles Tendon Toxicity in Rodents: Biochemical Changes in Proteoglycan Synthesis and Oxidative Damage to Collagen
Despite a relatively low incidence of serious side effects, fluoroquinolones and the fluoroquinolone pefloxacin have been reported to occasionally promote tendinopathy that might result in the complication of spontaneous rupture of tendons. In the present study, we investigated in rodents the intrinsic deleterious effect of pefloxacin (400 mg/kg of body weig
