Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The adhesion between muscle tendon and surrounding tissue after tendon restoration is one hot topic in clinic.
OBJECTIVE:To construct a deep flexor tendon transection model in the third toe of female Leghorn chicken and to explore the effect of peritenon transplantation on the prevention of tendon adhesions.
METHODS:After the transection models were successful y established, the third toe of left claw was taken as experimental group A. The transected tendon was sutured, the tendon anastomosis end was wrapped with the peritenon of the deep flexor tendon from the ipsilateral fourth toe (experimental group B). The third toe of right claw served as control group A, the transfected tendon was sutured and restored with the peritenon. The fourth toe of right claw was taken as control group B. Gross observation and histological observation of the tendon were performed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 28 days postoperatively, gross observation and histological observation of Leghorn chicken were performed and compared using the Kruskal-Wal isH and Nemenyi test, respectively. The results showed that, the therapeutic effect was better in experimental group A than in control group A (P<0.05), but slightly poorer compared with control group B and experimental group B (P<0.05). The postoperative effect was better in experimental group B than in control group A (P<0.05) and showed no significant difference between experimental group B and control group B (P>0.05). The flexor function was evaluated and compared with the least significant difference t-test. The results showed that the postoperative effect was better in experimental group A than in control group A (P<0.05), but slightly poorer compared with control group B and experimental group B (P<0.05). The postoperative effect was better in experimental group B than in control group A (P<0.05) and showed no significant difference compared with control group B (P>0.05). Peritenon transplantation can effectively prevent tendon adhesions and has little impact on normal tendon sliding.
