Lately there has been an increased incidence of rupture of the Achilles tendon following the general increase in mass sports. Surgery is the treatment of choice, and various methods are being described. We have been using the wire suture method with fascia lata plasty for more then twenty years. The rate of infection is 3.8% and that of rerupture 1.2%, figures that correspond to those stated for other surgical methods. Moreover, 87% of the patients were very satisfied with the result of the operation; they are fit for work without any restriction, and some of them even practise their sports activities as before. For this reason we consider that wire suturing with fascia lata plasty is by no means obsolete in the treatment of rupture of the Achilles tendon.
近年来，随着大众体育运动的普遍增加，跟腱断裂的发生率有所上升。手术是首选的治疗方法，并且有多种方法被描述。我们使用钢丝缝合加阔筋膜移植术已经二十多年了。感染率为3.8%，再断裂率为1.2%，这些数字与其他手术方法所报道的相符。此外，87%的患者对手术结果非常满意；他们能够毫无限制地恢复工作，其中一些人甚至还能像以前一样进行体育活动。因此，我们认为钢丝缝合加阔筋膜移植术在跟腱断裂的治疗中绝不过时。
