[Physiology of tendon and physiopathology of tendinitis].
Despite the histological knowledge acquired from light and electron microscopy and the deeper studies devoted to the composition of tendons, we are still unable to draw practical conclusions concerning the treatment of tendinitis. Experimental in vivo studies and biochemical studies are still too far from physiological conditions to be useful in the traumatology of tendons. They have, however, the merit to provide better theoretical basis and to persuade doctors specialized in sport not to disregard these date.
