Anchor Suture

Triceps tendon rupture is rare and easily missed on presentation. A 58-year-old man was seen in our accident and emergency department with an inability to extend his right elbow against gravity after he fell. Ultrasound and MRI confirmed the suspected diagnosis of a traumatic triceps tendon rupture and excluded additional injuries. Surgical repair was carried out by a bone anchor suture reinsertion of the tendon to the olecranon. After 2 weeks of cast immobilisation, an early active range of motion (ROM) rehabilitation schedule was followed, resulting in excellent elbow function at 12 weeks postoperatively.In conclusion, it is important to suspect this rare injury and use additional studies to confirm the diagnosis of triceps tendon rupture. Also, good clinical outcome with regards to function can be achieved using bone anchor suture repair and an early active ROM rehabilitation schedule.

Tract Infections

Since the introduction of Fluoroquinolones (FQ) in 1960s, these antibiotics have been used in airway and urinary tract infections, due to absorption, biodisponibility, posology and long half-life time properties. However, several reports state that FQ can cause tendinopathy and rupture. These adverse effects can occur within hours after initial treatment to up to 6 months after withdrawal. FQ-induced tendinopathy was first reported in 1983; since then more than 100 cases have been published. FQ usage can lead to complete tendon rupture and no more than 8 to 15 cases are reported worldwide. Most of rupture cases have been associated to corticoid use and rheumatic, vascular or renal disease. The purpose of this case report is to present the challenging diagnosis of a bilateral rupture of Achilles tendon in an old patient, because of the uncommon of the presentation and to review the current literature on such a debilitating condition.
