简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term effects on ankle/Achilles tendon pain after repair of insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT) augmented with TAPESTRY Biointegrative Implant.
详细描述
This study is a prospective case series of patients who have had insertional Achilles tendinopathy repair augmented with the Tapestry Biointegrative Implant. The primary aim of the study is to describe patient reported pain 12 months after surgical repair with Tapestry. The secondary aims are to assess the proportion of study subjects that experience treatment-related adverse events post-surgery, treatment related serious adverse events resulting in second surgical intervention, quality of life and other patient reported outcomes at all follow up timepoints post-surgery, and tissue thickness measured with MRI at 6 months post-surgery.
