| Abstract | Peritendinous adhesion is an important cause of poor functional outcome after flexor tendon repair. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of a single intraoperative application of extractum cepae, an extract of dietary onion, on the peritendinous adhesion, using a rabbit model of flexor tendon injury. The first, second, and third digits of the right hind paw of 18 rabbits were used for tendon operations. A standard partial division of the synovial sheath and flexor tendon was done at zone II to stimulate the adhesion formation. In the treatment group (n = 9 rabbits, 27 tendons), the flexor tendon sheath was treated with 50 mg/mL of extractum cepae which was applied locally and allowed to infiltrate for 5 minutes, the skin was sutured without suturing the sheath and the tendons. The same operation was done for the control group (n = 9 rabbits, 27 tendons) and 1 mL of normal saline solution was applied locally. Biomechanical and histologic evaluations of the specimens were done after 3 weeks. Tendons from the first toes were used for biomechanical studies. The second and third toe tendons were used for histopathologic evaluation. We have compared the peritendinous adhesions and the ultimate forces in the control and treated tendons. There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups with respect to the ultimate loads. Adhesion formation was absent in 1 tendon (5.5%), slight in 8 (44.4%), moderate in 6 (33.3), and severe in 3 tendons (16.7%) in the extractum cepae treated group (n = 18); while in the control group (n = 18), it was absent in 1 tendon (5.5%), slight in 1 tendon (5.5%), moderate in 3 (16.6%), and severe in 13 (72.4%) tendons. There was a significant reduction (P = 0.01) in the peritendinous adhesion in the treated group comparing to the control group. The problem of adhesion formation may be minimized using a single intraoperative application of extractum cepae. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
