Tendon split lengthening technique for flexor hallucis longus tendon rupture
BACKGROUND Flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon rupture is a challenging injury to lead with clawing of the great toe when the FHL tendon is repaired too tight. When the diagnosis is delayed, the tendon ends may not be opposable because of contracture or poor tendon tissue. METHODS A technique to reconstruct FHL tendon rupture without a free tendon graft is described. A split tendon lengthenin...
متن کاملExtensor indicis proprius tendon transfer for extensor pollicis longus rupture
The extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon is one of the most frequently ruptured tendons. The EPL is the primary extensor of the interphalangeal (IP) joint of the thumb and is also important in metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint extension. The loss of this tendon leads to an inability to extend the thumb and raise it to the level of the palm, leaving the patient with a useless thumb (1). Clinicall...
متن کاملPalmaris Longus Tendon Grafting for Extensor Pollicis Longus Tendon Rupture bScrew Tip after 20 years
INTRODUCTION Spontaneous ruptures of extension pollicis longus tendon predominantly occur after undisplaced or minimally displaced distal radial fracture near Lister tubercle. Systemic inflammatory diseases and systemic or local steroid, mechanical causes like bony ridges, presence of bone plate or external fixator pin may precipitate this.

متن کاملSpring ligament reconstruction using the autogenous flexor hallucis longus tendon.
The calcaneonavicular (spring) ligament complex is the soft tissue most often seen to fail in flatfoot pathology and is associated with deformity of the talonavicular joint. The spring ligament complex supports the talar head, preventing it from displacing into excessive plantar flexion/adduction. An anatomical reconstruction of the spring ligament should replicate this function. A new method o...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Achilles Tendon after Tumor Excision with Flexor Hallucis Longus Tendon Transfer
