A Tendinous Slip of the Flexor Hallucis Longus for the Second Toe An Anatomical Variation
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF TREND IN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, (February 2022)Abstract
Anatomical variant of the flexor hallucis longus tendon are clinically imperative because their special role in reconstructive surgery of Achillis tendinopathies. The present study reports of the tendinous slip of the flexor hallucis longus for the second toe and the tendinous slip merge with the tendon of flexor digitorum longus. The tendon of flexor hallucis longus and flexor digitorum longus with lumbricals were cut at the calcaneus specifically observe the flexor hallucis longus and flexor digitorum longus tendon of second toe. The tendon of flexor hallucis longus divide into two slips. A connecting slip from flexor hallucis longus was found and inserted into the flexor digitorum longus tendon of the second toe. The first lumbrical took origin from the flexor hallucis longus and from tibial side of flexor digitorum longus tendon for second toe. These extra tendinous slips can be fairly used in the reconstruction. Dr. Akshita Choudhary | Dr. Sandeep M.
