On the Reparative Process in Human Tendons After Subcutaneous Division for the Cure of Deformities: With an Account of the Appearances Presented in ... Series of Experiments on Rabbits, and a Résum - Softcover
Synopsis
This book examines the process of tendon repair following surgical division. In the early 1800s, the author performed the first subcutaneous tenotomy for the treatment of club foot, a procedure that became widespread due to its safety and effectiveness. Despite this, the exact process by which tendons heal after being cut remained unclear. The author set out to investigate this process through a series of animal experiments and post-mortem examinations of human subjects. Their findings revealed that the healing process involves the formation of new connective tissue, which gradually develops into new tendon tissue. This new tissue is initially weak but strengthens over time, allowing the tendon to regain its full function. The author's work has significantly advanced our understanding of tendon healing and has helped to improve the outcomes of tendon repair surgery.
