At International St. Mary's Hospital, Debridement of Achilles tendon is performed using precise tendon-sparing techniques and individualized orthopedic treatment planning. Established in 2014, the JCI accredited hospital in Seoul, South Korea has 808 beds and provides comprehensive foot, ankle, and rehabilitation services.

Debridement of Achilles Tendon may be recommended when chronic tendon degeneration causes persistent pain, swelling, stiffness, or impaired function despite appropriate non-surgical management. The surgeon removes abnormal tendon tissue and, when necessary, cleans the surrounding area to create a healthier environment for healing. If the remaining tendon is weakened or partially torn, repair or reconstruction may be required. Postoperative care commonly includes protected weight-bearing followed by gradual physiotherapy and strengthening.
