Abstrakt		A study on thirty-six cadaveric Achilles tendons was undertaken to compare different Achilles tendon repairs. The strength of the repair and the gapping resistance were tested under different standardized experimental conditions. Each matched pair of cadaveric Achilles tendons was randomly repaired in the original Ma-Griffith configuration and in the original standard configuration and loaded to failure. Using a special equipment the force displacement curve was measured. Under different experimental conditions the original technique presented in the study provided significantly greater tensile strength and gapping resistance than the original Ma-Griffith repair configuration. The results of this study may be clinically relevant in terms of choice of the percutaneous method used for the repair of the ruptured Achilles tendon.
