Why are tendon tears and breaks difficult to repair physiologically and surgically?

In contrast to most connective tissue, the dense regular connective tissue that makes up tendons is notoriously avascular meaning that it lacks the blood supply. Without adequate blood blood supply, tissues depend on diffusion to obtain their nutrients. As it takes quite a while for nutrients to diffuse through the dense regular connective tissue, tendons take quite a long time to fully repair.
