Exposed tendons after burn injury create a surgical challenge for the treating physician. This is particularly true with regard to the exposed Achilles tendon. This case report reviews the nature of this challenge and traditional solutions, and describes the use of negative pressure wound therapy to facilitate coverage of the Achilles tendon. This therapy may provide a more appropriate therapeutic option for dealing with tendon exposure after severe burns.
