Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research
|July 1, 1980
Abstract:
A previously undescribed lesion--complete, acute traumatic rupture of the flexor hallucis longus--is reported in a 34-year-old man to demonstrate the location of lesion, possibility of misdiagnosis, mechanism of rupture, and the surgical technique. The results of surgical repair were excellent. The literature regarding other injuries to the flexor hallucis longus tendon is also remarkably limited.
