How does a hinged cam walker work and aid during Achilles tendon healing?
I have experience with the VACOcast Achilles boot (www.vacocast.com) which is hinged and can be fixed in 30 or 15 degrees of plantar flexion (toes pointing downward in order to reduce tension on the Achilles tendon). When the ankle is fixed in plantar flexion, also known as equinus, it allows the injury to heal without risk of rupture or re-rupture. As the tendon heals, the orthopedic surgeon will gradually reduce the amount of equinus until the ankle is at neutral, or 90 degrees. This safely increases the amount of tension and avoids unwanted shortening of the Achilles tendon.
