Z-plasty of the flexor hallucis longus tendon at tarsal tunnel for checkrein deformity.
PURPOSES To review the outcome of Z-plasty of the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon at the tarsal tunnel for checkrein deformity in 8 patients. METHODS Records of 6 males and 2 females aged 14 to 67 (mean, 39.5) years who underwent Z-plasty (lengthening) of the FHL tendon at the tarsal tunnel for checkrein deformity in the first and second toes by a single surgeon were reviewed. All patient...
متن کاملTendon 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 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 کاملHypertrophy of the flexor hallucis longus muscle after tendon transfer in patients with chronic Achilles tendon rupture.
BACKGROUND Flexor hallucis longus tendon (FHLT) transfer has become a popular method for reconstructing a chronic Achilles tendon rupture (ATR). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes and possible hypertrophy of the FHL muscle after FHLT transfer in patients with chronic ATR. METHODS Seven patients with chronic ATR underwent an FHLT transfer to heel through single inc...
متن کاملThe fibula-flexor hallucis longus osteomuscular flap.
Limb salvage after loss of bone and soft tissue may require many operations to obtain soft-tissue cover and bony continuity. We describe a fibula-flexor hallucis longus osteomuscular flap which can provide both soft tissue and bone in a single stage. The flap is based on the peroneal vessels and is covered by a split-thickness skin graft. We report the results in five patients with an average b...
