Abstract
Recently, the incidence of Achilles tendon rupture has been increasing with an increase in the elderly and the sports population. Various kinds of surgical options have been introduced up to now. Among them, the traditional open repair is most commonly used despite the risk of re-rupture or post-operative infections, which in turn can impair the blood flow to the Achilles tendon. Therefore, minimally invasive methods to overcome these complications have been studied with excellent outcomes.
