Abstract:
The free vascularized fibula graft has been an increasingly useful tool in orthopaedic surgery. In addition to its many applications, the reported low donor site morbidity has helped make this a popular treatment modality. Isolated flexor hallucis longus flexion contracture has been reported in the literature; however, multiple ipsilateral clawtoe deformity has not been reported. We describe two cases of multiple clawtoe deformity following ipsilateral harvest of a free vascularized fibula graft.
