Resumo

Objective. Two new cases of Achilles rupture and closed tibial malleolus fracture are presented and a bibliographic review of that injury is carried out. Material and methods. The association of Achilles tendon rupture and tibial malleolus fracture in the same patient is a rare entity with few bibliographic references and as far as the authors know there are no references in Spanish. In many cases, one of the two lesions may initially go unnoticed, leading to increased morbidity. Only 9 isolated clinical cases have been described in English-language journals and in 6 cases one of the two lesions went unnoticed ini-tially. Two cases of Achilles tendon rupture with as-sociated tibial malleolus fracture are presented. Results. In the two cases presented, both lesions were initially diagnosed, the Achilles tendon was treated with an open suture, and the tibial malleoli fractures by conservative treatment as they were stable under fluoroscopy. Conclusions. The correct identification of both lesions, their correct treatment and the absence of postopera-tive complications led to a good final result in both patients.
