Suffice it to say, in fact, that while all tendons slide within fibrous sheaths, only a few are further enveloped by a sheath, called the synovial sheath, which facilitates sliding within the former, while most are surrounded by the so-called peritendinous leaflets, which have the same function as the synovial sheath but different structure.
