Postoperative complications can be burdensome on both the patient and the surgeon. Attention in literature is often directed toward different forms of treatment and successful outcomes in surgery. The incentive of this article is to bring insight toward postoperative complications in rearfoot surgery, more specifically, the repair of the Achilles tendon with suture tape and suture anchors. This article directs attention to the recent reports on hypersensitivity reactions seen with the use of suture tape and nonabsorbable suture anchors and may encourage physicians to make patients aware of this potential complication when using these materials.
术后并发症既给患者也给外科医生带来负担。文献中通常关注手术的不同治疗形式和成功结果。本文的目的是让人们了解足跟手术后的并发症,更具体地说,是用缝线带和缝线锚修复跟腱。本文提请注意最近有关缝线带和不可吸收缝线锚使用时出现的过敏反应的报道,并可能促使医生在使用这些材料时让患者意识到这种潜在的并发症。
