A: partial thickness tendon tear; B: full-thickness tear with no retraction of tendon; C: full-thickness tendon tear with retraction; FBL: fiber bundle length; PA lat.: lateral pennation angle; PA med.: medial pennation angle; ( ) minimum and maximum values. If superscript letters are different, it indicates statistically significant difference of P < 0.001 of parameter between tear categories within the same region. *P = 0.100; **P = 0.013; †statistical analysis was not conducted due to sample size. |
