Interposition of the flexor hallucis longus tendon through the subtalar joint was identified intraoperatively during a triple arthrodesis for a symptomatic adult clubfoot in a patient who had a posteromedial release as a child. The mechanism for this occurrence is unknown, although it is likely that the flexor hallucis longus tendon deviated into the subtalar joint during the early postoperativ...

The effect of dietary administration of clenbuterol on soleus and extensor digitorum longus muscles was studied after 4 and 21 days. Both muscles showed an increase in wet weight with no significant change in total fibre number. After 4 days fibre cross-sectional areas were increased in soleus, but not in extensor digitorum longus, and after 21 days there was a change in fibre frequencies in ex...

BACKGROUND The close anatomic and functional relationship between the proximal parts of the adductor longus and pectineus muscles produce considerable overlap in symptoms and signs in the inguinal region. To our knowledge, there have been no publications of ultrasound (US)-guided injection techniques into the 2 muscles. OBJECTIVE This study sought to describe US-guided injection techniques in...

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains produce a type IV pilus named Longus. We identified a 16-gene cluster involved in the biosynthesis of Longus that has 57 to 95% identity at the protein level to CFA/III, another type IV pilus of ETEC. Alleles of the Longus structural subunit gene lngA demonstrate a diversity of 12 to 19% at the protein level with strong positive selection for poin...

An adductor longus muscle rupture is a rare injury. This case report describes a 32-year-old patient with an adductor longus rupture. The trauma mechanism was a hyperabduction movement during a soccer game. Nonoperative treatment was initiated. After a follow-up of 4 years, the patient was without pain but a small swelling was still visible. This report describes the anatomy, pathophysiology, a...

Tears of the peroneus longus muscle are unusual, and typically involve the distal insertion at the musculotendon junction. Although tears of the mid-portion of the peroneus longus muscle/tendon complex have been reported, no reports of a tear at the origin of the peroneus muscle have been published, to the authors' knowledge. Herein a case of proximal peroneus longus muscle tear and its subsequ...
