Abstract

A technique for the recognition of closed injuries of the distal biceps tendon by introducing CO2 gas contrast into the soft tissues has been devised. The gas is injected into the fascial cover of biceps with a special apparatus. This produces direct and indirect signs of rupture of the tendon in radiographs. The repair of the distal biceps tendon is achieved by an original method using a homoplastic sling around the radius. Good results were obtained in 13 patients.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
