[Functional therapy of Achilles tendon rupture].
We are going to present two cases with functional treatment of Achilles tendon ruptures. We define a treatment as functional if the involved limb is either not immobilized at all or whenever the immobilization is incomplete and for a limited time only and when no operation is necessary. The functional treatment is presented as an alternative, and we are going to present the advantage and disadvantage.
