“…To enhance tendon repair, different treatments can be chosen. First of all, treatment can be surgical (suture (14,15), augmentation and reconstruction (16), implant of devices as the TenoFix TM (17,18), Achillon TM (4,19), nitinol devices (20,21), OrthoCoupler TM (6), PONTiS TM (22)) or conservative (e.g., immobilization with splint, physiotherapy sessions in particular TECAR, infiltrations with platelet gel, Hyaluronic acid (23), and other non-surgical options ( 4)). The Laboratory of Bio-inspired Nanomechanics at Politecnico di Torino study the field of tendon injury and its relative repair method evaluating new innovative technical repair, this paper is to give an evaluation of the impact of tendon injuries and their relative cost on the healthcare system, providing information on the importance of this issue, this aim drives the current research.…”
