Surgical outcomes in patients with Achilles tendon rupture-a retrospective study.
PeerJ
January 2025
Biostatistics, Faculty of Medicine, Adiyaman University, Adıyaman, Turkey.
Background: There are two main methods used to treat Achilles tendon rupture (ATR): conservative treatment and surgical intervention. Surgical techniques are divided into three main categories: open surgical repair, mini-open surgical repair, and percutaneous repair (PR). We aimed to compare clinical outcomes in individuals with ATR who were treated with PR, primary repair, and flexor hallucis longus augmentation (FHL-A) with those treated with V-Y plasty and FHL-A.

Department of Orthopedics, Jingzhou Hospital Affiliated to Yangtze University, Jingzhou Hubei, 434020, China.
Background: Although non-surgical and surgical approaches have been developed to repair acute closed Achilles tendon ruptures, the medical community still lacks a definitive consensus on which approach is superior. This study describes a new minimally invasive internal splinting technique combined with knotless anchors for the treatment of 22 patients with acute closed Achilles tendon rupture.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted involving 22 patients with acute closed Achilles tendon rupture who were treated with a minimally invasive internal splinting technique at Jingzhou Hospital of Yangtze University between January 2022 to October 2023.

We sought to clarify the interface pressure (IP) and its variation by applying Biflex16, a calibrated bandage, to the lower leg. In Study I, 50 participants applied a bandage to the lower leg of a single subject in two ways: first, with 50% overlap, while the calibration rectangle became a square (Application 1), and then with 50% overlap without intentional stretch (Application 2) which served as a control. In Study II, another 51 participants applied the bandage to their lower leg via Application 1.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery/Sports Medicine Center, Southwest Hospital, Army Medical University, Chongqing, China.
Background: The challenge of achieving effective tendon-to-bone healing remains a significant concern in sports medicine, necessitating further exploration. Biomimetic electrospun nanomaterials present promising avenues for improving this critical healing process.
Purpose: To investigate the biological efficacy of a novel aligned-to-random PLGA/Col1-PLGA/nHA bilayer electrospun nanofiber membrane in facilitating tendon-to-bone healing.
Incidence of Wounds Associated with Posterior Midline Incision for Achilles Tendon Pathology in a Large Cohort at a Tertiary Care Center.

†Podiatry, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, PA.
Background: We sought to determine the wound complications associated with a straight midline incision overlying the Achilles tendon. Data on sex, age, body mass index (BMI), surgery performed, date of surgery, and wound development were collected.
Methods: We retrospectively collected data on 217 patients with a mean ± SD age of 46.
