Split Transfer of Extensor Digitorum Longus of the Second Toe for Elongation of EHB after Modified Jones' Procedure / 대한족부족관절학회지

ABSTRACT

Extensor hallucis brevis (EHB) is only extensor of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint after modified Jones procedure. Therefore preserving the normal insertion of the EHB has been emphasized during that procedure. We experienced a case of EHB rupture after modified Jones procedure and had satisfied surgical outcome by partial transfer of extensor digitorum longus (EDL) of second toe.
