The option of transosseous distal suture placement during minimally invasive Achilles tendon repair for high-risk patients can improve outcomes, however does not prevent re-rupture (2024)
Journal Article
Carmont, M. R., Nilsson-Helander, K., & Carling, M. (in press). The option of transosseous distal suture placement during minimally invasive Achilles tendon repair for high-risk patients can improve outcomes, however does not prevent re-rupture. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 25(1), Article 610. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-024-07630-8

Purpose: Achilles tendon ruptures (ATRs) close to the insertion, in high-level athletes, and in patients at high risk of re-rupture, may be better suited to operative repair. Minimally Invasive Repair (MIR) of the Achilles tendon has excellent outcom...

Musculotendinous ruptures of the achilles tendon had greater heel-rise height index compared with mid-substance rupture with non-operative management: a retrospective cohort study (2023)

Introduction
Achilles Tendon Ruptures (ATR) may occur at varying locations with ruptures at the mid-substance (MS) of the tendon most common, followed tears at the musculotendinous (MT) junction. There is scant li...
