TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Tendon injuries in sports JO - Langenbecks Archiv für Chirurgie Supplement Kongressband A1 - Klein, J. A1 - Tiling, T. SP - 473 EP - 476 VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - Epidemiologic data on the incidence of tendon injuries in these actively engaged in sports are missing. The significance of the tendon injury lies in the prognosis for any further sporting activities, the risk of chronicity, and thus the impairment of functional capacity (fitness). Pathogenesis, clinical features and treatment of the most essential tendon injuries are presented, based upon a literature search. The choice between conservative and operative treatment of tendon injuries is great of practical significance.
