Functional outcomes following minimally invasive Achilles rupture repair: a retrospective comparative study of PARS and midsubstance speedbridge techniques
In the largest study to compare patient-reported outcomes between PARS and MSB, outcomes were similar between both groups. Both techniques resulted in PROMIS PF greater than the population mean and PROMIS PI lower than the population mean. Each had similar ATRS scores. Overall, both MSB and PARS were safe and effective strategies for surgically managing Achilles ruptures.
