Effect of laser irradiation therapy on tendon healing

Abstract

The use of electrical stimulation to achieve an acceleration of tendon reparation and healing after tendon laceration is well known. Laser irradiatino is actually gaining increasing appliance in many fields of medicine and this experimental study aims to investigate the effect of laser beam on tendon healing. 16 Wistor albino rats have been used for this purpose and the Achilleus tendon of their hindlegs have been cut and sutured. The left legs have been preserved as controls and the right legs were exposed to laser beam daily for 6 minutes. The results were evaluated on macroscopic and microscopic grounds and it was concluded that healing proces was significantly promoted in laser-treated legs as compared to non-treated group. The development of new tendon cells was also noted.
