Abstract:
By means of literature investigation and analysis, the papers related to exercise-induced Achilles tendon rupture and operative restoration were summarized, which provide evidences for further analysis. Results demonstrated that exercise-induced Achilles tendon rupture was associated with anatomic structure and local affection of Achilles tendon, as well as athletic techniques. Operative therapy was recommended when the Achilles tendon was completely ruptured. With the development of tissue engineering tendon, more and more biological patch materials have been used in the clinical repair of Achilles tendon due to the superiority on the prevention of postoperative adhesion and the substitution of Achilles tendon.
