Journal ArticleDOI

Reimplantation of the totally extruded talus.

TL;DR: These cases of traumatic total extrusion of the talus, leaving no soft-tissue attachment were presented and the tali revascularised and survived without collapse and one patient developed posttraumatic osteoarthritis of the ankle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Site of maximum neovascularisation correlates with the site of pain in recalcitrant mid-tendon Achilles tendinopathy

TL;DR: Palpation can be reliably used as a clinical guide when planning interventions in patients with CRAT and sites of subjectively defined pain, clinically palpated tenderness, tendon thickness and neovascularisation are anatomically associated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute lateral ankle sprains in track and field athletes: an expanded classification.

TL;DR: The range of motion-edema-stress radiographs classification that is proposed evaluates the severity of lateral ankle injuries, is an easy and practical method, and predicts full return in athletic activities without residual complaints, if the proper rehabilitation program is executed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Growth Factors in Rotator Cuff Healing

TL;DR: The histologic lesion underlying overuse rotator cuff tendinopathy is a failed healing response, with haphazard proliferation of tenocytes, disruption of tendon cells and collagen fibers, and increased noncollagenous extracellular matrix.
Journal Article

Conservative management of tendinopathy: an evidence-based approach

TL;DR: High-volume injection of normal saline solution, corticosteroids, or anesthetics can reduce pain and improve long-term function in patients with Achilles or patellar tendinopathy and the use of injectable substances in and around tendons is not support by strong clinical evidence.
