Abstract
1. A review of the literature is presented showing the significant complications of surgical repair of the tendo achillis. 2. The results from the conservative and surgical management are compared. 3. It is suggested that the conservative management of fresh ruptures and old unhealed ruptures offers advantages over surgical intervention.Keywords
