Minimal waiting times and high-quality care at your fingertips with care at Highgate Private Hospital
Achilles tendon repair surgery is a type of surgery to fix a damaged Achilles tendon.
The Achilles tendon is a strong, fibrous cord in the lower leg which connects the muscles of your calf to your heel. It’s the largest tendon in your body and it helps you walk, run, and jump. In some cases, the Achilles tendon can tear, rupture or degenerate causing pain and swelling near your heel. You may not be able to bend your foot downward or you may have symptoms like pain and stiffness along your Achilles tendon and on the back of your heel.
During the surgery, an incision is made in the back of the calf. If the tendon is ruptured, the surgeon will stitch the tendon back together. If the tendon is degenerated, the surgeon may remove the damaged part of the tendon and repair the rest of the tendon with stitches. If there is severe damage to a lot of the tendon, the surgeon might replace part or all of your Achilles tendon. This is done with a tendon taken from another place in your foot. In some cases, the Achilles tendon repair surgery can be done as a minimally invasive procedure. This is done with several small incisions instead of one large one. It may use a special scope with a tiny camera and a light to help do the repair.
