Healing, diagnosis, repair, and rehabilitation of tendon conditions

Maria A Fahie. Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract. 2005 Sep.

Abstract

Management of tendon conditions can be frustrating due to difficulty with diagnosis, choice of treatment or repair technique, prolonged tissue healing, and potential for permanent compromise of limb function after surgery. This article reviews tendon healing and reported tendon conditions, focusing on bicipital tenosynovitis and common calcaneal tendon injuries. Surgical management options, research in enhancement of tendon healing, and postoperative rehabilitation are also reviewed.
