Soleus subtendon elongation is reduced by individual suturing of Achilles subtendons after rupture
The findings supported the hypothesis that individually suturing soleus and gastrocnemius subtendons reduces soleus subtendon elongation by approximately 50% compared with the standard technique 1 week after Achilles tendon repair. Although both subtendons elongated over 6 months, soleus elongation remained significantly lower with individual suturing,

Training-induced increase in Achilles tendon stiffness affects tendon strain pattern during running [PDF]
Background: During the stance phase of running, the elasticity of the Achilles tendon enables the utilisation of elastic energy and allows beneficial contractile conditions for the triceps surae muscles.

Abstract Purpose Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) is a serious lower limb injury that may result in persistent deficits in strength and endurance of the calf muscles. Compensatory mechanisms at proximal joints are known, but the effects of fatigue are less studied.

Risk factors for Achilles tendinopathy in runners - an investigation of selected intrinsic, kinematic, kinetic and muscle activity factors that are associated with Achilles tendinopathy [PDF]
The overarching purpose of this study was to investigate the multifactorial aetiology of Achilles tendinopathy. Variables such as training and injury history, lower limb alignment, running biomechanics and movement variability were investigated.

Achilles tendon rupture: the evaluation and outcome of percutaneous and minimally invasive repair [PDF]
Acute Achilles tendon rupture is common and has increasing incidence. This is thought to be due to increasing activity and sports participation in middle age.
