SUMMARY:
Achilles tendinopathy—do plantaris tendon removal and Achilles tendon scraping improve tendon structure? A prospective study using ultrasound tissue characterisation
Lorenzo Masci, Christoph Spang, Hans T M van Schie, Håkan Alfredson BMJ Open Sp Ex Med 2015
There is no abstract for this and the paper is not in English, but the title looks interesting:
Marked innervation but also signs of nerve degeneration in between the Achilles and plantaris tendons and presence of innervation within the plantaris tendon in midportion Achilles tendinopathy
