peritendon or per-tendon space? - Mary


Posted: Jan 23, 2010

This is a cortisone injection into the subacromial and peri-tendon space.

Could he be saying "peritenon"

peritenon: the connective tissue structures attached to and surrounding a tendon.

paratenon: The fatty or synovial material between a tendon and its sheath.

From this website, I would go with peritenon (JMHO):

http://www.drpawluk.com/tendinitis.htm

Another common test for impingement involves the injection of a small amount of local anesthetic (such as novocaine or lidocaine hydrochloride) into the space around the tendon. This test helps eliminate the possibility that the pain results from a problem in the spine. If pain subsides immediately after injection, tendonitis syndrome is likely to be the cause of discomfort.

Edited to Add: "the space around the tendon" would indicate "peri" versus "para."


peritendinous space - elaine

.

definite peritendon, not tenon anything in this example - anatomy look

[ In Reply To ..]
acromion is in the shoulder.
(peri)tenon will be in the leg.
Tenon (proper name) is the eye.

anatomy - - - peritendon not a word

"peritenon" refers to connective tissue structures associated with a tendon.

Peritendon is not a word.
