Current Diabetes Reviews, 2017
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common metabolic problems and is characterized by persistent hyperglycaemia. Exposure to chronic hyperglycaemia can affect many tissues including the Achilles Tendon, which is one of the largest tendons in the body. The current literature on the effects of hyperglycaemia on tendons is sparse, though evidence on rat ...

The Anatomy of the Achilles Tendon
Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2005The Achilles tendon is the strongest and largest tendon in the body. It is the conjoined tendon of the gastrocnemius and the soleus muscles, and may have a small contribution from the plantaris. The muscles and the Achilles tendon are in the posterior, superficial compartment of the calf.

Medical Clinics of North America, 2014
Achilles tendon disorders include tendinosis, paratenonitis, insertional tendinitis, retrocalcaneal bursitis, and frank rupture. Patients present with pain and swelling in the posterior aspect of the ankle. Magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound are helpful in confirming the diagnosis and guiding treatment.

Der Orthopäde, 2000
The treatment of acute of Achilles tendon rupture experienced a dynamic development in the last ten years. Decisive for this development was the application of MRI and above all the ultrasonography in the diagnostics of the pathological changes and injuries of tendons.

#### Summary points Disorders of the Achilles tendon are common in active people—competitive and recreational athletes alike—but they can occur in less active people. As the largest tendon in the body, the Achilles experiences repetitive strain from running, jumping, and sudden acceleration or deceleration, so is susceptible to rupture and ...

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1998
As the number of persons who participate in athletic activity into their later years has increased, so has the incidence of overuse injuries to the Achilles tendon. The etiology of these problems is multifactorial and includes biomechanical factors and training errors.

Australasian Radiology, 2006
SummaryThe Achilles tendon is the largest and strongest tendon in the body, yet one of the most commonly injured. Tendon degeneration is a relatively common disorder, predisposing to tears and often associated with paratenonitis. Numerous other diseases involve the Achilles tendon, some with classic imaging appearances, others with non‐specific ...

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery
There are many high-level studies comparing nonoperative treatment, open repair, and minimally invasive repair for Achilles tendon ruptures. This article summarizes the most up-to-date literature comparing these treatment options. The authors' preferred protocol for nonoperative treatment is discussed.
