Tenotomy

Sanchez got three opinions before Dr. Gary Waslewski, the Giants' Arizona-based orthopedist, performed the 30-minute surgery, called a tenotomy - removal of the biceps tendon. ❋ [email protected] (John Shea (2010)

Where there exists no articular or ligamentous diseases which would defeat the purpose, tenotomy is the only remedy for contracted tendons. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

This is recommended by Breton [25] as being productive of good results even where contraction of tendons exists and tenotomy is done. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

Antyllus had operations for the cure of stammering, for cataract, and for the treatment of contractures by the method of tenotomy. ❋ James Sands Elliott (N/A)

-- Wherever contraction is not too marked and weight is borne with the affected members, and where the feet can be kept on the ground in a nearly normal position, it is possible to correct the condition without doing tenotomy. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

Cunean tenotomy has been advocated and practiced by Abildgaard, Lafosse, ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

In all serious cases of inflammation of the carpal flexors, whether tenotomy has been performed or not, the subject needs a long period of rest subsequent to treatment. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

It follows then, that tenotomy, here as in other cases, is not practical from an economic viewpoint, unless the animal be of sufficient value to justify the long period of rest for recovery. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

This muscle is the smaller of the three and is not usually divided in doing carpal tenotomy. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

The upper part is solid, but with a sharp clean-cut (made with a cataract or tenotomy knife) running completely through its axis from the centre of the disc to the top of the dome. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

Where contraction of tendons exists and no osseous or ligamentous change prevents correction of the condition, tenotomy is necessary. ❋ John Victor Lacroix (N/A)

Bonnet 14.19 reports a case of fracture of both thighs, two right ribs, luxation of the clavicle, and accidental club-foot with tenotomy, with good recovery from all the complications. ❋ Unknown (1896)

She handled the little wax-like foot so gently, and held the tiny tenotomy knife as an artist holds his pencil. ❋ Unknown (1894)

Preliminary tenotomy of the shortened tendons is required in some cases. ❋ Alexander Miles (1893)

Subcutaneous tenotomy -- at one time the favourite method of treatment -- has been entirely replaced by the _open operation_, which admits of all the structures at fault, including the cervical fascia, being thoroughly divided, without risk of injuring other structures in the neck. ❋ Alexander Miles (1893)
