ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Hemostatic abnormalities and thrombotic risk associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are among the most discussed topics in the management of this disease. The aim of this position paper is to provide the opinion of Brazilian experts on the thromboprophylaxis and management of thrombotic events in patients with suspected COVID-19, in the sphere of healthcare in Brazil. To do so, the Brazilian Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (BSTH) and the Thrombosis and Hemostasis Committee of the Brazilian Association of Hematology, Hemotherapy and Cellular Therapy (ABHH) have constituted a panel of experts to carefully review and discuss the available evidence about this topic. The data discussed in this document was reviewed by May 9, 2020. Recommendations and suggestions reflect the opinion of the panel and should be reviewed periodically as new evidence emerges.

Com o objetivo de comparar a resistência, tensäo e o padräo histológico de tendöes patelares de animais submetidos à tenotomia e tenorrafia com tendöes näo tenotomizados, 28 ratos Wistar machos (peso médio = 275g) foram submetidos à tenotomia do tendäo patelar esquerdo seguida de tenorrafia. Uma vez divididos em 4 grupos, estes foram sacrificados após 4, 5, 6 ou 8 semanas do procedimento para exérese do tendäo tenotomizado e de seu homólogo direito (utilizado como controle). Após terem sido submetidos ao teste de resistência em um dinamômetro, verificou-se que os tendöes tenotomizados e suturados foram mais resistentes que os controles (p=0,00004). Houve formaçäo de cartilagem e inclusive osso no tecido cicatricial de alguns tendöes.
