Fluoroquinolone antibiotic therapy is a recognized but poorly understood cause for Achilles tendinopathy. We report here a patient who developed bilateral partial Achilles tendon tears as a result of fluoroquinolone therapy. Ultrasound and MRI were both useful in identifying and distinguishing between Achilles tendinosis and tendon rupture. The current published literature on this problem was also reviewed.
氟喹诺酮类抗生素治疗是跟腱病一种已被认可但了解甚少的病因。我们在此报告一名因氟喹诺酮类治疗而发生双侧跟腱部分撕裂的患者。超声和磁共振成像在识别和区分跟腱病与肌腱断裂方面均很有用。本文还对有关该问题的现有已发表文献进行了综述。
