Abstract |
The authors have developed two new methods of treatment of degenerative achilles tendon rupture using the biological prostheses of xenopericardium. In cases of tendon gliding surface deformation the insulating plastic was applied by wrapping seam zone with xenopericardium. In case of a fatal defect of the tendon it was re-placed by specifically formed prosthesis. 21 patients were operated. The insulating plastic was used in 14 of them, in 7 cases – substitute plastic. Only perfect and good long-term results were received. |
