  • Title: The anatomy of the extensor mechanism.
    Author: Terry GC.
    Journal: Clin Sports Med; 1989 Apr; 8(2):163-77. PubMed ID: 2752434.
    Abstract:
    The complex function of the extensor mechanism demands knowledge of not only its anatomic structures but of their balanced relationships as well. An awareness of a layer concept of tissue orientation is helpful in understanding surgical access as well as the normal function of the decelerator mechanism. This awareness is a prerequisite to the evaluation and treatment of mechanical disorders.
