This study aimed to evaluate the long-term clinical outcome of flexor hallucis longus tendon (FHL) transfer for chronic AT rupture with large defect. Clinical data of patients treated with FHL transfer due to chronic AT rupture between January 2009 and October 2019 were reviewed retrospectively.
6 cze 2017 · The technique for this procedure involves harvesting the FHL tendon responsible for flexing the big toe, and transferring it into or around the calcaneus where the Achilles tendon attaches. This can be done in either a two-incision technique or one incision technique:
19 gru 2023 · Achilles Tendon Ruptures are common tendon injuries that occur due to sudden dorsiflexion of a plantarflexed foot, most commonly associated with sporting events. Diagnosis can be made clinically with weakness of plantarflexion with a positive Thompson's test.
The most common tendon transfer to reconstruct the Achilles tendon is the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon. The FHL tendon is vascularized, readily available, expendable, and provides in-phase plantar flexion function.
1 paź 2019 · The transfer of Flexor Hallucis Longus Tendon (FHL) is an established method for the treatment of chronic Achilles tendon ruptures. An extensive examination of power, strength, endurance and complications related to this procedure is presented. Methods.
This article explores the use of tendon transfers and supplementation in the treatment of insertional and noninsertional Achilles tendinosis as well as in cases of neglected or chronic ruptures of the tendoachilles.
