Three patients are presented who sustained bilateral rupture of the Achilles tendon while on systemic steroid therapy for chest disease; a fourth patient with polymyalgia rheumatica on steroids is also presented. This is further evidence that tendon rupture can be a direct complication of steroid treatment. The English-language literature on bilateral Achilles tendon rupture is reviewed.
本文报告了3例在接受胸部疾病全身类固醇治疗时双侧跟腱断裂的患者;还报告了第4例接受类固醇治疗的风湿性多肌痛患者。这进一步证明肌腱断裂可能是类固醇治疗的直接并发症。本文回顾了关于双侧跟腱断裂的英文文献。
