ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Restoration of tendon integrity and tenacity, and maintenance of ankle joint flexibility, play a crucial role on the rupture of Achiles tendon.OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the muscular force using isokinetic muscle strength test after the ruptured Achiles tendon is repaired, and to assess the repairing effect.METHODS:
Muscle power including peak torque, peak torque/body weight, total work, average peak torque, set total work of flexor and extensor of 17 patients with Achiles tendon rupture were assessed after reconstruction using Biodex system 4 at 60 (°)/s and 120(°)/s. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
The peak torque, peak torque/body weight, total work, average peak torque, set total work of flexor muscle group at the injured side were significantly decreased compared with uninjured side at 60 (°)/s and 120 (°)/s (P < 0.05). Isokinetic muscle strength test can reflect the muscular force after the ruptured Achiles tendon is repaired, and evaluate the repairing effect.
