Achilles tendon ossification and fracture.

C S Resnik1, W C Foster.   

Abstract

We describe the case of a patient who had a fracture through an ossified Achilles tendon, and we illustrate a second case. Such ossification is uncommon, occurring most often after trauma or surgery. A subsequent fracture has been reported previously in only eight patients.
