An early diagnosis and intervention are crucial to prevent tendon dysfunction and systemic complications. Tendoachilles xanthoma, though uncommon, should be considered in patients with bilateral Achilles tendon thickening.\n\nCase Report: We hereby present a rare case of a 33-year-old female with bilateral tendoachilles xanthoma who presented with complaints of swelling and pain in the bilateral lower leg region treated with surgical debulking. Monthly follow-up suggested fair healing, pain reduction, and maintained Achilles tendon function.\n\nConclusion: Bilateral tendoachilles xanthoma is a rare but important condition usually linked to lipid metabolism disorders, but can also occur in a normolipidemic state too. This case highlights the need for early diagnosis, multimodal treatment, and a personalized surgical approach to preserve tendon function. Long-term lipid control in disorders associated with deranged lipid profiles is useful in preventing recurrence and systemic complications.\nKeywords: Achilles tendon xanthoma, tendon xanthoma, hyperlipidemia, cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, familial hypercholesterolemia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.13107\/jocr.2025.v15.i09.6032","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,7]],"date-time":"2025-09-07T13:45:03Z","timestamp":1757252703000},"page":"106-110","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Bilateral Tendoachilles Xanthoma in a Young Female: A Rare Case Report"],"prefix":"10.13107","volume":"15","author":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Government Medical College, Patiala, Punjab, India,","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harsh","family":"Kumar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Akshay","family":"Seth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Government Medical College, Patiala, Punjab, India,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meghna","family":"Chaudhary","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neharika","family":"Saini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India.","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"5271","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"container-title":["Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,7]],"date-time":"2025-09-07T13:45:03Z","timestamp":1757252703000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jocr.co.in\/wp\/2025\/09\/bilateral-tendoachilles-xanthoma-in-a-young-female-a-rare-case-report\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"9","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.13107\/jocr.2025.v15.i09.6032","relation":{},"ISSN":["2321-3817"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2321-3817","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}}}
