A Percutaneous Knotless Technique for Acute Achilles Tendon Ruptures
Achilles tendon ruptures are a common tendon injury, usually occurring in middle-aged men during recreational sporting activities. Both nonoperative and operative management are employed to treat these injuries. Several operative treatments are described in the literature, including percutaneous Achilles repair, mini-open repair, and open repair. Open Achilles repair is associated with higher r...
متن کاملPercutaneous & Mini Invasive Achilles tendon repair
Rupture of the Achilles tendon is a considerable cause of morbidity with reduced function following injury. Recent studies have shown little difference in outcome between the techniques of open and non-operative treatment using an early active rehabilitation programme. Meta-analyses have shown that non-operative management has increased risk of re-rupture whereas surgical intervention has risks...
متن کاملRetrospective analysis of mini-open repair versus open repair for acute Achilles tendon ruptures.
PURPOSE Debate exists over optimal treatment for acute Achilles tendon ruptures. Recent literature suggests the mini-open technique may provide the reliability of the open repair with the decreased complication rate of non-operative treatment. This retrospective review compares acute tendon ruptures treated with one of two techniques: open repair (TO) or mini-open repair (MOA). METHODS & RESU...
متن کاملFunctional evaluation of professional athletes treated with a mini-open technique for achilles tendon rupture.
INTRODUCTION in this study we report the functional results of 36 professional athletes treated with a combined percutaneous and mini-open technique. METHODS patients were evaluated with Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Achilles questionnaire (VISA-A), the objective 100-points Hannover scale and the Ergo-jump Bosco System device. RESULTS at a mean 28- month follow-up no re-rupture c...
متن کاملBiomechanical Head-to-Head Comparison of 2 Sutures and the Giftbox Versus Bunnell Techniques for Midsubstance Achilles Tendon Ruptures
BACKGROUND Acute midsubstance Achilles tendon ruptures are a common orthopaedic problem for which the optimal repair technique and suture type remain controversial. Head-to-head comparisons of current fixation constructs are needed to establish which stitch/suture combination is most biomechanically favorable. HYPOTHESIS Of the tested fixation constructs, Giftbox repairs with Fiberwire will e...
