Sumario:Patient T., 43 years old arrived in clinic with complaints to the pains in lower thir of the right shin, limitation of movements in right ankle joint, inability of using right lower extremity. An. operative treatment was realized in clinic: suture of rupture of Achilles tendon by Cuneo with plastics by the tendon of long plantar muscle. In 4 weeks plaster immobilization was removed, the patient started measured loading of operated extremity with additional cane support. In 6 weeks full load on operated extremity was allowed and the patient returned to work. In 2 months patient received repeated trauma. During the examination local painfulness in the area of operative intervention was revealed. At the palpation it was revealed that integrity of plantar muscle tendon isn't broken. Control MRR of right shin was made: as the result of control examination the injury of plantar muscle tendon wasn't revealed. Immobilization of operated extremity in neutral position of a foot by functional brace was recommended to the patient. Measured, loading with additional additional cane support was approved. In 2 weeks the immobilization was removed, function of operated extremity is fully restored. Conclusion: if proposed method allows to start earlier loadings and. to decrease possibility of repeated rupture of reconstructed plantar muscle tendon in the most active period of rehabilitation.
