The chance of rerupturing an Achilles tendon after initial repair is relatively low, typically ranging from 2% to 5%. Factors that can influence this risk include the quality of the initial repair, adherence to rehabilitation protocols, and the individual's activity level post-recovery. Patients who return to high-impact sports may face a higher risk compared to those who engage in lower-impact activities. Overall, proper rehabilitation and gradual return to activity can significantly reduce the chances of rerupturing the tendon.
