Experimental tenorrhaphy with the use of microsurgical tendon holder

https://doi.org/10.52581/1814-1471/82/03

Abstract

Objective. Damage to the tendons of the extremities is one of the most frequent injuries of the human musculoskeletal system. Tenorrhaphy, aimed at restoring their integrity, is a technically complex surgical intervention, including access with the release of the ends of the tendons, their retention and repeated interception during suturing with a thread. During surgery, the tendon inevitably undergoes additional trauma from compression by surgical instruments. As a result, there is a violation of the ultrastructure, blood supply and weakening of the ends of the sutured tendon. In turn, this prevents accurate adaptation and causes deformation in the seam area, promotes thread eruption. At the same time, tendon regeneration proceeds with a pronounced scar-adhesive process, sliding properties are violated, tenogenic contractures are formed.

Purpose of the study. To evaluate the effect of the tendon capture and retention method during tenorrhaphy on the microanatomic structure of the tendon.

Material and methods. A new instrument for performing tenorrhaphy is proposed. 12 experimental tenorrhaphies were performed on the tendons of the limbs of people amputated for medical reasons, using tweezers and an original tendon holder, followed by histotopographic examination of stitched tendon samples.

Results and discussion. In the course of the study, it was found that the method of capturing and holding the tendon during tenoraphy has a significant impact on its anatomical structure. When holding tendons with tweezers, violations of the tendon structure and damage to its membranes were observed. The tendons held during the operation with the help of a tendon holder were distinguished by the preservation of the macromicroanatomic structure of the tendon itself and the surrounding tissues.

Conclusion. The use of a microsurgical tendon holder makes it possible to ensure the safety of the macromicroscopic structure of the tendon, the anatomicity and precision of the tenoraphy, in comparison with traditional methods of tendon retention.
