2008
AIM: Evaluation of high resolution ultrasound to diagnose rupture of the medial head of gastrocnemius muscle in patients with uncharacteristic calf pain. METHOD: 66 patients with clinically unclear calf pain were examined in a prospective study. RESULTS: Out of 66 patients, 51 showed sonographic criteria of a partial rupture of the medial gastrocnemius head. 47 ruptures were located in musculotendineus transition zone.
