Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Tendo achilles (TA) ruptures are commonly encountered in orthopaedic practice. These can be managed operatively or conservatively depending on various factors like patient age, activity levels, co morbidities, patient expectations and surgeon preference. They are usually treated in plaster cast immobilisation if managed conservatively.

CASE REPORT

We present a case of fatal pulmonary embolism following conservatively managed Tendo achilles (TA) rupture in a young man treated as an orthopaedic outpatient.

DISCUSSION

There are no current clear guidelines on venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in conservatively managed outpatients with cast immobilisation.

CONCLUSION

Our case report highlights the importance of recognition of this aspect of patient management and reviews the current literature available on this debatable topic.

摘要

引言

跟腱断裂在骨科临床实践中较为常见。根据患者年龄、活动水平、合并症、患者期望以及外科医生的偏好等多种因素,这些断裂可以通过手术或保守方式进行处理。如果采用保守治疗,通常会用石膏固定。

病例报告

我们报告一例年轻男性跟腱断裂保守治疗后发生致命性肺栓塞的病例,该患者作为骨科门诊患者接受治疗。

讨论

目前对于采用石膏固定保守治疗的门诊患者,尚无关于静脉血栓栓塞(VTE)预防的明确指南。

结论

我们的病例报告强调了认识患者管理这一方面的重要性,并回顾了关于这个有争议话题的现有文献。
