Les tendinopathies et desmopathies de la région métacarpienne et –tarsienne: une revue des thérapies actuelles. Première partie : la structure, les lésions du tendon et le diagnostic.
[fr] Les lésions tendineuses sont fréquentes chez le cheval. Elles figurent parmi les causes de mise à la retraite anticipée tant du cheval de sport que du cheval de loisir. Depuis des décennies l’homme est à la recherche de traitements miracles pour soigner les tendinites. Néanmoins, la plupart de ces traitements n’ont qu’une base empirique et peu d’entre eux ont pu réellement prouver leur efficacité. Les avancées faites dans la connaissance des structures tendineuses et de la pathophysiologie des tendinites couplées à l'évolution des techniques diagnostiques comme l’échographie ont permis de mieux évaluer les avancées faites dans les différentes options thérapeutiques disponibles à ce jour. Cet article, composé de deux parties, donne en premier lieu un aperçu sur la structure, la lésion, la cicatrisation et sur l’évaluation échographique du tendon pour ensuite, dans la deuxième partie, élaborer les traitements disponibles. [en] Lesions to the horse’s tendon are very frequent and are a non negligible reason for early retirement of sport and leisure horses. For decades man has been searching for “the” treatment but unfortunately most of the known treatments have empiric bases and very few have actually proven their real efficiency. Better knowledge of tendon anatomy and pathophysiology of tendonitis together with evolutions in diagnostic techniques like ultrasonography allows us to better evaluate the improvements made in tendonitis therapies today. The first part of this article gives a review on tendon structure, tendon healing and ultrasonographic evaluation of the tendon. In the second part an overview of therapeutic options for tendonitis will be discussed.
