| Résumé : |
• Suture anchors can be effective devices to help strengthen surgical fixation when placing the tendon under tension. However, although rare, they also place the patient at increased risk for adverse foreign body reactions.
• Although it is not a common postoperative complication, hypersensitivity reactions can lead to delayed healing, surgical revisions, infections, and amputations, as well as cosmetic and/or psychological issues for the patient. • It is important to discuss complications from posterior heel surgery with the patient as complications require prolonged immobilization, as well causing a significant financial burden, often requiring additional surgeries and time off work. • Postoperatively, aggressive postoperative physical therapy, falls, and increasing activity too rapidly will be the biggest risks for tendon re-rupture. |
