Abstract
Achilles tendon ruptures can be treated nonsurgically in the nonathletic or low-end recreational athletic patient, particularly those more than 50 years of age, provided the treating physician does not delay in the diagnosis and treatment. Surgical treatment is recommended for patients who are young and athletic. An early and well-supervised rehabilitation program should be initiated to restore the patient to the preinjury activity level. Verf.-Referat
