Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures

Background:

  • Open Achilles tendon surgery often results in significant wound complications.
  • Endoscopic techniques present an alternative with potential benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review endoscopic surgical techniques for Achilles tendon pathologies.
  • To highlight the advantages of endoscopic over open approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Review of literature on endoscopic Achilles tendon surgery.
  • Description of techniques for specific conditions.

Main Results:

  • Endoscopic surgery demonstrates reduced scarring, pain, and wound complications.
  • Faster patient recovery is associated with endoscopic procedures.

Conclusions:

  • Endoscopic surgery is a viable, less invasive option for Achilles tendon treatment.
  • Techniques are applicable to equinus contracture, rupture, Haglund's deformity, and tendinopathy.
