Basics of Achilles Tendon Repair
Achilles tendon repair is a surgery used to fix a torn or ruptured Achilles tendon. The tendon connects the calf muscles to the heel bone and is important for walking and running. This surgery helps restore strength and movement in the ankle.
Surgical Techniques in Achilles Tendon Repair
During Achilles tendon repair, the surgeon makes an incision in the back of the lower leg to reach the torn tendon. Specialized surgical tools are used to stitch and reattach the tendon ends carefully. In some cases, minimally invasive techniques with smaller incisions are performed for faster recovery. Sutures, anchors, and other orthopedic instruments help in securing the tendon firmly. After repair, the foot is positioned to allow proper healing and tendon alignment. This procedure restores function, improves mobility, and prevents long-term complications.
Indications for Achilles Tendon Surgery
- To treat a complete or partial rupture of the Achilles tendon.
- To restore the ability to walk, run, and push off the foot properly.
- To relieve severe pain and weakness caused by tendon injury.
- To prevent long-term disability or loss of mobility in the ankle.
- To repair tendon damage that does not heal with non-surgical treatment.
