摘要
We report a case about a 69-year-old man, suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, diagnosed with a neglected Achilles tendon rupture. Considering the large Achilles tendon gap and the bad quality of the autologous tendons caused by rheumatoid disease, a reconstruction using an Achilles tendon with calcaneus bone block allograft was performed, with excellent clinical and functional outcomes.
