Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of celecoxib on the tendon adhesion and healing after anastomosis.Methods54 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to one of 3 ( celecoxib,ibuprofen,and saline) groups.The deep flexor tendon was transected,followed by a primary repair.The care was begun the day after surgery and was continually provided for 14 days.Celecoxib was given[20 mg/( kg · d) ],ibuprofen was given [75 mg/( kg · d) ],or the same volume of saline solution was given respectively.At the 4th and 8th week the animals were killed and assessed by general observation,histologically observation,and biomechanical testing.ResultsGeneral observation,celecoxib group and ibuprofen group showed good shape of tendons,smooth surface,and covered with a film - like tissue,and it was easy to be separated.Saline group showed that tendon and surrounding tissue medium had dense adhesions,and it was difficult to be separated.Histologically observation showed between tendon and paratenon had clear gap in celecoxib and ibuprofen group.The mature fiber cells gradually arranged rules and in the same direction.Saline between the tendon and paratenon gradually emerged a gap,but more fibroblasts and arranged in irregular.Biomechanical testing showed that tendon sliding resistance appeared in celecoxib and ibuprofen group.Compared with saline group,the differences were statistically significant (0.354 ± 0.078/0.382 ±0.121 vs 0.521 ±0.126,P <0.05;0.075 ±0.035/0.097 ±0.043 vs 0.414 ±0.110,P <0.01).UTS (ultimate tensile strength had statistical significance among celecoxib,saline groups and ibuprofen group.(36.812 ±6.388 vs 24.899 ±4.667,P <0.05;34.297 ±8.132 vs 24.899 ±4.667,P <0.01 ;54.515 ±4.688/59.037 ± 6.606 vs 42.418 ± 5.594,P < 0.01 ).ConclusionsCelecoxib can effectively prevent tendon adhesion,and does not affect the tendon healing.
