title: [Allotendoplasty in Achilles tendon injuries].
abstract: Experimental studies and clinical observations over allotendoplasty were carried out. A new method of the combined autoloplasty of old ruptures of the Achilles tendon was developed and carried out upon 13 patients. Allotendoplasty was applied upon 31 cases of injuries to the Achilles tendon. Late results were followed up in 30 patients; in 29 out of them a complete functional restoration of the injuried extremity was obtained. Clinical and experimental data allow to recommend banked allografts for the use in reconstructive surgery.
