Hi Ocader´s.
Male patient, 40 years old, posterior pain in the Achilles tendon region after a soccer game.
Thank you all for the comments.

Nice case. seen only once. didnt treat but seems like a good case where I would do Tenex!

Hi Andre, I have seen this thickening sometimes, but in your case it is very impressive and associated with surrounding edema, which makes me think of scarring and new sprain.
Attached a similar case from one of my previous lectures, with an acute presentation (plantaris tendon is also thickened although to a lesser degree).
Best, Atul.

Hi. There a more or less well described friction syndrome between the two tendons with thickening of the peritendon and inflammation. I will try to find the ref. I read some time ago. I think in french and italian literature…
Solution: to cut the plantaris tendon …
regards. bruno

Have never seen this but it looks split. Achilles possibly abnormal on coronal
