Blitz et al. (2009) suggested a model for the contribution of both tendons and muscles to bone eminence formation. Through a biphasic process, tendons regulate bone eminence initiation, and muscles control its subsequent growth. Further research is necessary to determine the mechanism whereby muscle contraction regulates eminence development. Reproduced with permission from Blitz et al., 2009.
