Análise comparativa das propriedades mecânicas do ligamento da patela e do tendão calcâneo

Abstract: Com a finalidade de se comparar as propriedades mecânicas do ligamento da patela e do tendão calcâneo foram realizados ensaios de tração em material obtido de 25 cadáveres humanos. A idade dos doadores foi 58 ± 14 anos (33-85), sendo 19 (76%) masculinos e 6 (24%) femininos, 23 brancos (92%) e dois negros (8%). Os materiais foram testados em seus 10 mm centrais, com velocidade de aplicação de carga de 30 mm/min. Foi obtida a área de secção dos corpos de prova para que fossem estudadas as propriedades estruturai… Show more

“…According to Muller et al, 21 with the reduction of elastic and visco-elastic properties, the capacity of the tendon to resist strain when stressed will be diminished, which agrees with the results of specific strain and maximum tension strain of this study. This research showed that on diabetic group, the stressstrain curve has a lower slope (elastic modulus) when compared to the control group.…”

“…In the presence of DM and non-enzymatic glycolization, manifestations could occur in physical properties of the tendon leading to a disorganization of fibers and consequently greater energy absorption and lower resistance of the tissue; this abnormality has been observed in other experimental studies of animal skin and tendon. 4,21,26 Grant et al 14 demonstrated that the collagen fibers of the Achilles tendon in DM patients have a smaller diameter, are denser, stiffer and have morphological changes when compared to the collagen fibers in tendons of non-diabetic patients. Other authors correlate the alterations in visco-elastic capacity and, consequently, a lower capacity to dissipate energy, of the tendon with stress fractures and with skin injuries and feet collapse.…”

“…If we compare the results obtained by Silvares (12) for the ultimate strength of the semitendinous (ST) muscle tendon in triple conformation (988 N ± 203 N) and those obtained by Müller (7) for the ultimate strength of a 10-mm thick patellar ligament to the PT and AT values obtained in our tests, it can be seen that the tibial tendons present a similar strength, even if we compare them to other grafts traditionally employed in knee ligament reconstructions.…”

“…Se compararmos os valores obtidos por Silvares (12) para a resistência máxima do tendão do músculo semitendíneo (ST) em conformação tripla (988N ± 203N) e os obtidos por Müller (7) para a resistência máxima do ligamento da patela com espessura de 10 mm aos valores do TP e do TA obtidos em nossos ensaios, verificamos que mesmo comparados a outros enxertos classicamente utilizados para as reconstruções de ligamentos do joelho, os tendões tibiais apresentam resistência semelhante.…”

“…Quando existiam diferenças de mais de 25% na resistência à tração para tendão direito e esquerdo, foi observada mudança histológica no tendão mais fraco no local da ruptura. Os autores concluíram que a ultra-sonografia pode ser um método útil na descoberta de lesões degenerativas de tendões MÜLLER (1998),. com o objetivo de comparar as propriedades mecânicas do ligamento patelar e do tendão calcâneo, realizou ensaios mecânicos de tração em material obtido de cadáveres.…”
