Bilateral simultaneous Achilles tendon ruptures are rare, with only ten cases reported in the English literature. Our case is that of a 44-year-old woman, along with a review of the literature. Affected persons usually are on chronic steroid treatment and in the fifth to seventh decades of life. The patient may have concomitant systemic disease, and the injury occurs with relatively mild trauma. The goals of treatment are mainly preventative, i.e., cessation of steroids as soon as possible and protective bracing of the remaining intact Achilles tendon.
双侧同时性跟腱断裂较为罕见，英文文献中仅报道过10例。我们的病例是一位44岁女性，并对相关文献进行了回顾。患者通常长期接受类固醇治疗，年龄在五至七十岁之间。患者可能伴有全身性疾病，损伤在相对轻微的创伤下发生。治疗目标主要是预防性的，即尽快停用类固醇，并对剩余完整的跟腱进行保护性支撑。
