Summary

This study tests whether adding a collagen scaffold during surgery for a torn Achilles tendon helps people recover better than standard surgery alone. About 48 adults with a recent Achilles rupture will be randomly assigned to get either the scaffold or usual repair. Researchers will track pain, function, tendon healing on ultrasound, and complications for one year after surgery.
