Brief Summary: This retrospective study includes 74 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture from March 2012 to September 2018, aiming to compare the mid-term curative effect of primary repair and gastrocnemius turn-down flaps and guide clinical decision.
Detailed Description: Objective: To explore the surgical methods and observe the med-term curative effect of primary repair and gastrocnemius turn-down flaps for acute Achilles tendon rupture, so as to guide clinical decision. Methods: This retrospective study includes 74 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture from March 2012 to September 2018, whose surgeries was completed by the sponsor with either primary repair or gastrocnemius turn-down flaps. The recovery and motor function of the patients were followed up by outpatient clinic and telephone at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months after operation, respectively, so as to statistically analyze the med-term curative effects of two surgeries. Specific indicators include: Visual Analogue Scale, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Ankle-Hindfoot Score, The Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment-Achilles, The Achilles tendon Total Rupture Score, the Tegner Activity Score, Biodex isokinetic dynamometer system, Postoperative rehabilitation index and complications.
