Achilles Tendon Rupture
An Achilles tendon injury occurs when the tendon attached to the heel bone ruptures due to excessive strain.
How Is Achilles Tendon Rupture Surgery Performed?
In acute ruptures, the tendon ends are sutured together with a primary repair. The leg is placed in a cast for 6 weeks. Afterwards, a walking boot with elevation is used for 3 weeks. By the end of the third month, the patient can return to sports.
What Are the Advantages of Achilles Tendon Rupture Surgery?
In cases where primary repair is performed, near 100% full recovery is observed. In patients who present late, more extensive surgery such as tendon transfer may be required.
