AbstractThis study aimed to determine the tibial cut (TC) accuracy using extensor hallucis longus (EHL) tendon as an anatomical landmark to position the total knee arthroplasty (TKA) extramedullary tibial guide (EMTG), and its impact on the TKA mechanical alignment (MA). We retrospectively studied 96 TKA, performed by a single surgeon, using a femoral tailored intramedullary guide technique. Seventeen were prior to the use of the EHL and 79 used the EHL tendon to position the EMTG. We analyzed preoperative and postoperative standing total lower extremity radiographs to determine the tibial component angle (TCA) and the correction in MA, comparing pre-EHL use and post-EHL technique incorporation. Mean TCA was 88.89 degrees and postoperative MA was neutral in 81% of patients. Pre- and postoperative MAs were not correlated. As a conclusion of this study, using the EHL provides a safe and easy way to determine the position of EMTG.

Extensor Hallucis Longus

The authors present a case of a traumatic extensor hallucis longus tendon rupture sustained 2 days after hallux valgus and hammer toe correction. The ruptured tendon, separated by a 6-cm defect, was repaired using a fascia lata allograft. This case demonstrates a serious complication of a commonly performed procedure and a salvage technique useful for dealing with large tendon defects. (J Am Podiatr Med Assoc 92(8): 467-470, 2002)

Chronic multifocal closed rupture of the extensor hallucis longus tendon is an extremely rare injury. Previously, chronic multifocal partial rupture of the extensor hallucis longus tendon had not been reported. This case study reports one case of autogenous graft repair of a chronic multifocal rupture of the extensor hallucis longus tendon using a semitendinous tendon autograft.
