  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 We report a case of simultaneous bilateral rupture of the Achilles tendon sustained while running at full speed. This injury is rare, and there are only 22 reports in the Japanese literature. We treated the ruptures surgically by repairing them with the recently developed No. 2 nonabsorbable multifilament Pennington sutures. Postoperatively, immobilization was achieved with bilateral below-knee casts in the equinus position for 3 weeks, after which range of motion and strengthening exercises were begun. At 4 weeks the patient regained full range of motion. Almost full weight bearing in a walker was started at 5 weeks, and at 6 weeks the patient became able to walk with a T-cane.
