Robert Spławski MD, PhD Paweł Surdziel MD, PhD Tendon injuries Department of Traumatology and Hand Surgery University of Medical Sciences in Poznan Head of Department: Prof. Władysław Manikowski
Historical notes Tendon surgery is as old as surgery itself
Historical notes • 2698 BC – Yu-Fu • BC – Hippocrates • 280 BC – Herophilos from Chalkedon • 129-199 – Galen • 980-1037 – Avicenna • 1641- Ambrosius Pare • 1880 - Nikoladoni • 1881 – Gluck • 1882 – Henck
Historical notes Hippocrates – if injury of Achilles tendon occurs it would cause acute fever, convulsins etc. Avicenna - tenth century strongly advocated tendon suture World War I and II stimulated the development of modern hand surgery
Tendon consists of : • Cells – fobroblasts • Extracellular matrix • mainly collagen fibers, elastin fibers • ground substance (proteoglicans, glycosaminoglycans, structural proteins, plasma proteins and other small molecules)
Collagen typI – composed of three chains 70% glicine, 15% proline and 15% hydroxyproline Collagen molecules are combined in a right-handed triple helix. The stabilisation between helixs is maintain by hydrogens bonds.
Collagen molecule micro fibrils tendon Fibril of collagen epitendon endotendon
Blood supply 1 artery, 1 veins, a lot of nervs 2 fascicls – 1 artery , 1vein, 2-3 nervs 2 arteris, 2 veins , a lot of small arteries 5 fascicles – 1 artery i 2 veins
Primary flexor tendon suture Delayed flexor tendon suture Secondary repair /late reconstruction/ - one stage tendon reconstruction - two stage tendon reconstruction
Treatment Zone I Reinsertion after avilsion injury End to end suture Zone II End to end suture Zone III End to end suture
Treatment • Active extension-passive flexion Kleinert method of rehabilitation • Controlled passive motion -Duran-Houser method /active motion after 5 weeks/ • 3. Controlled active motion method.
Tendon reconstruction Primary end to end tendon suture. To 3-4 weeks. Secondary - staged techniques single stage – good conditions two stage – after complicated injuris 1-st stage – endoprothesis 2-nd stage – tendon graft.
Secondary tendon repair 1.One stage reconstruction FTG /free tendon graft/ 1.1. Bunnel graft zone I-III I° wg Boys`a 1.2. Matev graft zone I-V 1.3. Interposition graft III-V 2. TFTI (temporary flexor tendon implant) 2.1. Shortgraft I-III 2.2. Longtendon graft I-V
Tendon reconstruction Tendon grafts Short – zone 1-3 Long – zone 1-5
Zone I Mallet finger Type I- closed trauma , with or without small avulsion fracture Type II- laceration, loss of tendon continuity Type III- II+deep abrasion Type IV- A-transepiphiseal plate fracture; B- fracture of artic. surf. 20-50%; C- fracture of artic. surf. >50% , or subluxation aDIP
