Achilles, peroneus longus and brevis ruptures with lateral malleolus fracture: A case report and review of literature

Figure 6 Intraoperative images showing repair of the Achilles tendon. A: Looped suture passing device being utilized to shuttle sutures from proximal Achilles repair to distal calcaneal insertion site. White arrow indicates the end of the lop passed subcutaneously from distal to proximal for suture shuttling; B: Posterior view demonstrating restoration of Achilles tension after distal repair of the tendon through 4.0 mm anchors placed into the calcaneus at the Achilles insertion. Anchors were placed through small stab incisions distally (indicated by white arrows).
