a and b Representative transmission electron microscopy images showing the fibril diameter composition in transversely sectioned tendons. The composition of the fibrils in the tendon from the fracture group (a) revealed a more heterogeneous fibril diameter distribution (mean 99.3 ± 42.4 nm) compared with the more homogeneous fibril distribution (mean 64.7 ± 7.1 nm) observed in the direct lateral revision group (b). Scale bar 200 nm
