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 ...

Acute Ruptures of the Achilles Tendon
Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2009The Achilles tendon (AT) is the most frequently ruptured tendon in the human body, but the etiology of AT ruptures is still not completely understood. Percutaneous repair and conservative management are viable alternatives to open surgery, which carries higher complication rates and is the most costly of the 3 management options.

Reconstruction of an Achilles tendon defect utilizing an Achilles tendon allograft
The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 1996Acute ruptures of the Achilles tendon are common. Treatment for such ruptures is well documented. Treatment for chronic ruptures with a significant defect poses a surgical dilemma. The authors present the use of a tendon allograft to replace an Achilles tendon defect with a 2.5-year clinical follow-up inclusive of isokinetic testing.

Functional anatomy of the Achilles tendon
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2010The Achilles tendon is the strongest and thickest tendon in the human body. It is also the commonest tendon to rupture. It begins near the middle of the calf and is the conjoint tendon of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. The relative contribution of the two muscles to the tendon varies. Spiralisation of the fibres of the tendon produces an area of

Rupture of the Achilles and patellar tendons
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2003Certain similarities can clearly be appreciated between Achilles and patellar tendon ruptures. Both are strong tendons that transmit force bridging at least one joint of the lower limb. When healthy, both require massive forces to be disrupted, and both can be weakened through certain systemic disease processes, steroids, and fluoroquinones. Both allow
