⚡ TL;DR(1 Cümlede Hızlı Çıkarım)

Both postoperative treatment protocols can be used safely whereas clinical outcomes of EPR after open AT repair are superior to immobilization, and we recommend EPR after surgical repair of Achilles tendon ruptures.

🎯
Amaç & Hipotez:The aim of this study is to compare early postoperative rehabilitation (EPR) and six weeks cast immobilization protocols after Achilles tendon (AT) repair. 44 patients who underwent AT repair for acute rupture were included in the study. 25 patients in Group 1 underwent six weeks cast immobilization, and 19 patients in Group 2 underwent early rehabilitation following surgery.
📊
Temel Bulgular & Veri:Demographic findings, other systemic diseases, the time duration between injury and surgery, follow-up time, complications, time to return to work, re-rupture, injury mechanism, AOFAS, ATRS, and SF-36 subscales were all evaluated.

Özet

The aim of this study is to compare early postoperative rehabilitation (EPR) and six weeks cast immobilization protocols after Achilles tendon (AT) repair. 44 patients who underwent AT repair for acute rupture were included in the study. 25 patients in Group 1 underwent six weeks cast immobilization, and 19 patients in Group 2 underwent early rehabilitation following surgery. Demographic findings, other systemic diseases, the time duration between injury and surgery, follow-up time, complications, time to return to work, re-rupture, injury mechanism, AOFAS, ATRS, and SF-36 subscales were all evaluated. The mean follow-up period was 10.7 ± 2.50 (range 7 to 19) months. Return to work time and the number of complications was significantly higher in Group 1 (p<0.001, 0.043 respectively). Mean AOFAS and ATRS scores of Group 2 were significantly higher than Group 1 (p=0.005, p=0.022 respectively). Two of the SF-36 subscales (physical functioning and role limitations due to physical health) were significantly better in Group 2 than Group 1 (p=0.025, p=0.022 respectively). Both postoperative treatment protocols can be used safely whereas clinical outcomes of EPR after open AT repair are superior to immobilization, and we recommend EPR after surgical repair of Achilles tendon ruptures.
