Endoscopic speed bridge: A new treatment for insertional Achilles tendinopathy - 06/10/21
, Cedric Ngbilo c, Giovany Padiolleau b, Olivier Boniface dAbstract |
Surgical treatment may be indicated after failure of medical management of insertional Achilles tendinopathy, and may consist in simple calcaneoplasty, increasingly performed endoscopically, or in open detachment-reattachment. Isolated calcaneoplasty sometimes shows poor results in case of multiple overlooked lesions (bone, tendon, pre- or retro-tendinous bursitis). Detachment-reattachment may be indicated in case of tendon lesion, but incurred scar and infection related risk in up to 30% of cases in certain reports. In this context, we describe a new original technique using an endoscopic Achilles speed bridge, which we call the “snake technique” for the S-shaped order of performance of the 6 necessary approaches.
