biggest problems with tendon transfer
adhesions
biggest cause of adhesions
suturing
tendon transfer
detachment of the tendon from its insertion and then relocated to a new insertion
tendon transplantation
rerouting the course of the a tendon without detachment
tendon suspension
tendon acts to support a structure
primary component of tendon
water
only cell type in tendon
fibroblasts
collagen in tendon is replaced how often
every 6 months
make up of tendons
30% collagen
2% elastin
68% water
what covers endotendineum
epitenon
straight tendons are covered by what
paratenon
what runs in paratenon
nerves and blood vessels
tendons that are angled are covered in what
tendon sheath
peritenon includes what
para, meso, epi and endotenon
3 sources of blood supply in tendon
from muscle belly
bone and periosteum
paratenon
this is paramount in tendon surgery
preservation of blood supply
deep fibers enter bone at what angle
90
what are the phases of tendon healing
inflammatory phase
reparative phase 5 days
remodeling phase 15-28 days
when should early mobilization begin
3-4 wks
most active structure in tendon repair
epitenon
muscles produce greatest force at what length
120% of resting length
when are muscles at 0 tension
at 60% of resting length
what can you do to decrease adhesion
create a channel through subcutaneous tissue
where is incision made with tendon surgery
directly over tendon you are harvesting
where do you make the incision for the place you are moving the tendon to
a few mm away from where you moving it to
too much tension leads to what
muscle degeneration
too little tension leads to what
muscle shortening and eventual loss of power
how do you put proper tension on a tendon
put foot at 90 degrees and then move the tendon
where should tendon be fixed
as close to insertion as possible
what can tendon be fixed to
tendon
periosteum
bone
what is one time you don't take epitenon with you
side to side to allow for scarring
tendon transfers alone are not sufficient for what
flatfoot surgery
adductor hallucis transfer
tendon resected and passed medially under capsule and sutured into medial aspect of capsule
indications for adductor transfer
HAV to help realign sesamoid apparatus
abductor transfer
tendon resected and transferred under 1st met head and fixated to the lateral aspect of the base of the proximal phalanx
indications for abductor transfer
hallux varus
EHL transfer
EHL transected and routed under DTIL and fixated to lateral aspect of base of proximal phalanx
what needs to happen with EHL transfer
IPJ fusion
indications for EHL transfer
when there is a sagittal componenet to the varus deformity
Jones suspension
EHL excised
transverse hole drilled in 1st met head
tendon routed through hole and sutured onto itself
what other procedure needs to be done with jones suspension
IPJ fusion
indications for jones suspension
flexible cavus
flexible plantarflexed 1st met
removal of both sesamoids
lesser metatarsalgia
hibbs tendosuspension
EDL tendon slips are detached bundled and placed through midfoot
indications for hibbs
retrograde buckling at MPJs
metatarsal equinus
lessermetatarsalgia
lesions 2-4
what is done with slips going to toes in a hibbs
sutured to EDB
TATT
tibialis anterior tendon transfer
how many incisions are needed for a TATT
3
TATT
tendon rlsd from insertion rerouted out proximal insertion then brought down to new insertion usually 3rd cuneiform
what are indications for TATT
recurrent club foot
flexible forefoot equinus
dropfoot
trans met amp
charcot marie tooth deformity
STATT
spilt tibialis anterior tendon transfer
how many incisions are made with a STATT
3
STATT
tendon is split through proximal insertion then lateral slip is passed through the peroneus tertisu sheath tendon is fixated to tertius or into cuboid
if you fixate lateral half of TA to peroneus tertius what do you not want to do
take the epitenon with it
what are indications for STATT
spastic rearfoot varus
spastic equinovarus
fixed equinovarus
forefoot equinus
flexible cavovarus
excessive supination in giat
dorsiflexory weakness
COBB procedure
STATT but rerouting is to the PT tendon
indications for COBB
PT dysfunction
FDL transfer
tendon transected as far distally as possible then hole is drilled through the navicular tendon is rerouted through navicular inferior to superior and sutured to itself
indications for FDL transfer
help support medial arch in PT dysfunction
tibialis posterior transfer
tendon resected PT is pulled through window PT is brought downto insertion usually the 3rd cuneiform
what needs to be considered with PT transfer
phase change from a stance phase muscle to a swing phase muscle
when should passive ROM begin after tendon transfer
3 weeks
what procedure should always be done with trans met
TAL
what tendon is indicated for use in the presence of chronic achilles ruptures
FHL
