OBJECTIVE: To compare the rerupture rate after conservative treatment, open repair, and minimally invasive surgery management of acute Achilles tendon ruptures.
DESIGN: Systematic review and network meta-analysis.
DATA SOURCES: We searched Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to August 2022.

RESULTS: Thirteen trials with 1465 patients were included. In direct comparison, …
