The problems of Achilles tendon rupture become more important, because the number of sport injuries is increasing. The typical rupture (transverse rupture) is well known. However in literature the medial rupture between muscle and tendon of the musc. gastrocnemius and the longitudinal rupture of the Achilles tendon are rarely mentionaled. This article describes the special symptoms of these injuries and their therapy.
