Summary
Minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of closed critical crack is better than open surgery for better recovery and fewer complications.
Abstract
Purpose
To investigate the clinical effect of minimally invasive percutaneous treatment of acute closed rupture of Achilles tendon.
Methods:The clinical data of 25 patients with acute closed rupture of Achilles tendon treated from May 2010 to September 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The treatment effect was evaluated by using AOFAS scoring standard, the muscle strength of the contralateral side and the maximum plantar flexion muscle strength, and the lower leg circumference diameter.
Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-25 months with an average of 11 months. There was no complication such as wound infection, skin necrosis and rupture of Achilles tendon. AOFAS evaluation criteria: excellent in 19 cases, good in 3 cases, fair in 3 cases, excellent and good rate was 80.4%. The average lateral plantar flexor muscle strength was 28.3 kg, and the average plantar flexion muscle strength was 22.9 kg. With an average of 1.69 cm, the average recovery time was 5.7 months, and the average recovery time was months.
Conclusion
Minimally invasive percutaneous treatment of acute closed rupture of Achilles tendon can effectively reduce the related complications.
