Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the process of tendon repair following surgical division. In the early 1800s, the author performed the first subcutaneous tenotomy for the treatment of club foot, a procedure that became widespread due to its safety and effectiveness. Despite this, the exact process by which tendons heal after being cut remained unclear. The author set out to investigate this process through a series of animal experiments and post-mortem examinations of human subjects. Their findings revealed that the healing process involves the formation of new connective tissue, which gradually develops into new tendon tissue. This new tissue is initially weak but strengthens over time, allowing the tendon to regain its full function. The author's work has significantly advanced our understanding of tendon healing and has helped to improve the outcomes of tendon repair surgery. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. xi, 175, [1] pp; 7 plates, each with explanatory text leaf; ads. Original cloth, recently rebacked with most of original spine preserved. Very Good. First Edition. "A major contribution to the subject. . . . [Adams's] association with Little . . . stimulated his interest in the healing of tendons. He published a monograph on it in 1860 [offered here]. . . . Adams believed that the sheath had an essential role in the healing process, and he based his ideas on the study of human material; over a 9-year period he was able to study fifteen instances of tendon section done from 4 days to 3 years before. . . . [Adams] came to conclusions regarding this process that have continued to be valid" (Boyes, On the Shoulders of Giants, pp. 49-51). "We can see by the way . . . [Adams] set to work that he knew how scientific surgery should be built up. There were still uncertainties as to the exact manner in which repair was effected after a tendon is cut. Adams carried out a series of experiments on sixteen rabbits, cutting the tendo Achillis, and studying closely each stage in the process of repair. . . . It would repay us to review the results of his dissections of deformed feet in which the operation of tenotomy had been carried out at varying periods before death had occurred from some accidental cause. His descriptions of the condition of the parts to be seen in the dissections of deformed feet are still the best to be found in our libraries" (Keith, Menders of the Maimed, pp. 73-74). "Adams became the leading orthopedic surgeon of his time in England, succeeding his teacher, W. J. Little, in this role" (Peltier, Orthopedics, a History and Iconography, p. 45).

8vo, pp. xi, 175, (1), and 8 plates (1 woodcut, and 7 lithographed by West after drawings by Adams and G.H. Ford) with 7 leaves of explanation, + 32 pages of Churchill?s adverts dated June 1865 inserted at the end. Half-title. Original brown cloth, uncut, two modern bookplates. Ends of spine and tips of corners worn, joints a little chipped, but a very good copy. FIRST EDITION. A classic book on the behaviour of tendons and their repair after division. ?There now followed a continuous series of works which sought to establish the finer anatomical effects of tenotomy. Of all these works only one may be singled out, namely the monograph of William Adams (1820?1900), because, beside experiments on animals (rats), the healing process could be studied in a continuous series, even in humans. During his time at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in London, Adams was able to obtain preparations from 15 patients who had died over periods from 4 days to 3 years after tenotomy, from unrelated causes. He came to the following conclusion, that the tendon sheath is of great importance in maintaining the direct connection between the tendon ends, and that the sheath contains the matrix for the new tendon and determines its ultimate form? (translated from Valentin, Geschichte der Orthopädie, p. 106). See also Keith, Menders of the maimed, pp. 73?74.
