  • Title: [Long-term results after operation of Achilles tendon rupture].
    Author: Winckler S, Neumann H, Reder U.
    Journal: Aktuelle Traumatol; 1991 Apr; 21(2):64-9. PubMed ID: 1677520.
    Abstract:
    From 1973 to 1986 90 patients with rupture of Achilles' tendon were operated on (4 of these had open ruptures). Different surgical approaches were employed during the period under report. The assessment schemas after Arner/Lindholm and after Trillat formed the basis of both clinical follow-up and a questionnaire operation (participants were 81 patients 10 months to 14 years after the operation). 92.6% good and very good results confirmed the authors' concept of surgical treatment around the 4th or 5th day.
