Abstract:
Tibialis anterior tendon (TAT) rupture is a rare injury that commonly diagnosed late due to mild clinical signs and symptoms. Management of TAT rupture is a topic without a clear consensus in the literature. This current concept review tries to shed some light on the data and treatment. Our extensive literature review identified 81 case reports and case series from 1905 to 2018. Several reported management techniques with their advantages and disadvantages were analyzed and our treatment recommendations are given based on current available evidences. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE: IV.
