Atraumatic bilateral Achilles tendon rupture: an association of systemic steroid treatment.

R A Kotnis1, J C Halstead, P J Hormbrey.   

Abstract

A case of bilateral Achilles tendon rupture associated with steroid use is reported. This case illustrates the importance of taking a thorough drug history in cases of tendon rupture. In lower limb tendon rupture all patients, especially those on steroids, should be warned of the increased risk of contralateral injury.
