The pathobiology and repair of tendon and ligament injury
AE Goodship, HL Birch, AM Wilson - Veterinary Clinics of North America …, 1994 - Elsevier
Injury of the collagenous structures comprising tendons and ligaments, either from acute
trauma or from repetitive strain lesions, results in protracted periods of disability. The
resolution of such injuries often fails to restore the normal morphologic and functional
characteristics of the structure and, therefore, either compromises the future performance of
the individual or predisposes to an increased risk of recurrent injury.
