“…Initial conservative approaches, emphasizing rest and immobilization, have gradually given way to more aggressive surgical interventions as understanding of tendon healing and biomechanics has deepened [7,8]. Among the various surgical techniques, Baker's procedure, involving the lengthening of the gastrocnemius-soleus complex, has been noted for its effectiveness in managing chronic Achilles tendon issues [9][10][11]. In the realm of Achilles tendon injury management, a significant gap in the literature pertains to understanding the complications associated with Baker's procedure, particularly in the context of neglected injuries.…”

“…Current conservative treatment strategies involve the topical or oral application of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), loading exercises (ie, eccentric-concentric loading), cooling, taping, and exercise rehabilitation. Nonsurgical therapies are also used, including acupuncture, focused shock wave treatment, and electrotherapies (ie, different forms of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation [TENS]) [ 11 - 13 ]. In cases of long-standing symptoms that cannot be managed conservatively, surgical splitting of the tendon lengthwise and excision of necrotic tissue can be attempted [ 14 ].…”
