Stenosing Tenosynovitis

The problems of flexor hallucis tendonitis and os trigonum syndrome in dancers are presented. The mechanism of injury, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation are outlined. Pitfalls in diagnosis are discussed as well as prognosis for return to dance class and the stage. The best surgical access to the os trigonum is a lateral approach.

Stenosing Tenosynovitis

The author presents a case of stenosing tenosynovitis of the flexor hallucis longus tendon at the sesamoid area of the great toe following injury of the hallux. Although stenosing tenosynovitis of the flexor hallucis longus tendon is not rare, occurring frequently in ballet dancers, its entrapment at the sesamoid area was rarely described in the literature. Early recognition of this condition is very important for successful treatment. This patient did not respond to nonoperative treatment and surgical tenolysis was very successful for relief of the symptoms.

Extensor Hallucis Longus

Trigger toe is a rare entity, with only a few cases reported in the literature. It is usually seen in ballet dancers as a result of compression of the flexor hallucis longus tendon in the tarsal tunnel beneath the medial malleolus. We report a case of trigger toe due to a constricting lesion on the extensor hallucis longus tendon. (J Am Podiatr Med Assoc 96(4): 356–358, 2006)

Calcaneal Tuberosity

ABSTRACT Calcaneal tuberosity fractures comprise only 1 to 2% of all calcaneal fractures. Treatment of these injuries has traditionally included open reduction and internal fixation with various means including lag screws, suture anchors and K-wires. We report on a series of cases treated with excision of the tuberosity fragment with repair of the Achilles tendon supplemented by a flexor hallucis longus tendon transfer.
