Biomechanical Comparison of Achilles Tenotomy and Achilloplasty Techniques in Young Rats

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2009
Background: Tendo Achillis lengthening is performed by means of Z-plasty in the classic treatment of clubfoot. In the Ponseti method for treating clubfoot, Achilles tenotomy is performed percutaneously for residual equine deformity. A randomized study was designed to compare tendon healing after tenotomy versus Z-plasty.

Mini-Open Technique for the Achilles Tenotomy in Correction of Idiopathic Clubfoot

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 2008
Achilles tenotomy is performed for the residual equinus deformity in the Ponseti method of clubfoot treatment. In the present article, we describe a mini-open Achilles tenotomy technique to prevent complications that could occur during tenotomy. This technique was performed on 15 patients (25 feet) during a 3-year period in our clinic on patients whose

Celecoxib inhibits the heterotopic ossification in the rat model with Achilles tenotomy

European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, 2012
Celecoxib, a selective cox-2 inhibitor, has been shown to prevent the heterotopic ossification following total hip arthroplasty. However, the effects of celecoxib on heterotopic ossification at other locations remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of celecoxib on heterotopic ossification in the rat model with Achilles tenotomy ...

Foot abduction increases after achilles tenotomy in clubfoot patients

Journal of Orthopaedic Science, 2021
Although Achilles tenotomy is performed to increase the ankle dorsiflexion in clubfoot patients, it may also increase the amount of the foot abduction due to the unique oval field of motion property of the ankle and subtalar joint complex. This study investigated the effect of Achilles tenotomy on foot abduction in patients with clubfoot.Equinus ...
