TL;DR: Endoscopy-assisted percutaneous AT repair allows direct visualization of the synovia and protects the paratenon that is important in biological healing of the AT, this technique becomes a reasonable treatment option in AT ruptures.
Journal ArticleDOI
A biomechanical comparison of the primary stability of two minimally invasive techniques for repair of ruptured Achilles tendon.
TL;DR: The Achillon-like configuration and the modified percutaneous repair of ruptured AT provided similar biomechanical performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motion analysis as an outcome measure for hip arthroplasty.
TL;DR: Motion analysis demonstrates functional improvement in patients post-operatively, but the values of the variables measured do not reach the same levels as control subjects.
