Clinical Trial: Anterior Knee Pain and Patellar Tendon Elasticity After Infrapatellar Tendon-Split Tibial Intramedullary Nailing

U.S., June 23 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07659899) titled 'Anterior Knee Pain and Patellar Tendon Elasticity After Infrapatellar Tendon-Split Tibial Intramedullary Nailing' on June 15.

Brief Summary: This prospective single-center observational cohort study will evaluate the relationship between anterior knee pain and patellar tendon elasticity after infrapatellar tendon-split tibial intramedullary nailing. Adult patients undergoing standard tibial intramedullary nailing through an infrapatellar tendon-split approach will be enrolled after ethics approval. Patellar tendon elasticity will be assessed using shear-wave ultrasound elastography before surgery and during follow-up at 6 weeks, 3 m...
