Chronic Achilles tendon ruptures are routinely retracted and unable to be primarily repaired end-to-end. To provide enough length to allow repair, procedures such as V-Y lengthening, central turndown, or grafting are often necessary. Several lengthening techniques have been described, but there is...
Achilles tendon ruptures are increasingly common yet up to a fifth of them are undiagnosed after medical consultation. Those undiagnosed will become chronic ruptures causing considerable functional morbidity and represent a challenge to the treating doctor. The purpose of this article is to discuss the...
Delayed treatment of Achilles tendon ruptures is generally due to either misdiagnosis or patient delay. When the treatment is delayed more than 4 weeks, the rupture is defined as “chronic”, and almost always requires more invasive surgery and long
Autologous Quadriceps tendon graft (in bone-tendon configuration) is a simple technique that could allow surgeons to reconstruct tissue defects in the Achilles tendon with non-expensive hardware. 展开 关键词: Chronic Achilles tendon rupture Surgical reconstruction Quadriceps autograft Platelet rich plasma ...
Platelet rich Plasma in Achilles Tendon Healing 2 (PATH-2) trial: protocol for a multicentre, participant and assessor-blinded, parallel-group randomised clinical trial comparing platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection versus placebo injection for Achilles tendon rupture. BMJ Open. 2017;7(11):...
Non-anatomic reconstruction procedures use various configurations of local tendon grafts to accomplish the restriction function of the ligament without repair of the ligament remnants. Several techniques have been described, including partial or complete tenodesis from the Achilles tendon or peroneal tendon...
摘要: This study compared outcomes after treatment of acute Achilles tendon (AT) rupture via percutaneous suturing, with those after chronic AT rupture treated via open reconstruction.DOI: 10.1016/j.fas.2016.12.003 被引量: 1 年份: 2017
He had previously undergone primary Achilles tendon repair, which resulted in early rupture and subsequent revision surgery with tendon reinforcement using two anchors in the superior aspect of the calcaneal bone. Approximately ten months prior to presentation, a fistula developed at the wound site, ...
To date, we have found the Achilles tendon allografts to be perhaps the most reliable and versatile graft to reconstruct the chronic distal biceps tendon rupture and, when required, it has provided satisfactory clinical results in this difficult clinical setting....
