Aim

Our collaborative study aims to demonstrate that acute partial Achilles Tendon Tears (ATTs) are not separate diagnostic entities from full ATTs. and should be thought of as a continuum rather than binary partial or full.

Methods

We pooled anonymised data from four hospitals, identifying patients with acute partial ATTs on USS reports from 2019–2021. Patients were only included if they had an acute injury and no previous background Achilles tendinopathy.
