MR Imaging of Accessory Soleus Muscle

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1990
The accessory soleus muscle is an unusual anatomical variant that may present as a mass in the distal calf or medial ankle region. On both magnetic resonance (MR) and ultrasound, this variant has appearances similar to adjacent normal muscle. The diagnosis can be strongly suggested by typical location and by both echo texture and MR signal pattern of ...

Anomalous muscle in the leg: Soleus accessorium

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1984
In the last 4 years we have had the opportunity to investigate an anomalous muscle mass on the medial aspect of the distal leg of three young athletes. A review of the clinical literature has revealed only nine reported cases of a similar muscle mass in this area.

The gastrocnemius with soleus bi-muscle flap

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2004
The gastrocnemius muscle flap is often insufficient in volume and arc of rotation for coverage of a large soft tissue defect of the knee and the upper third of the leg. Therefore we developed a new concept of the flap which combines soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, named the 'gastrocnemius with soleus bi-muscle flap'.

Nerve Supply to the Accessory Soleus Muscle

Cells Tissues Organs, 1994
An accessory soleus muscle was found in the right leg of a cadaver in the dissecting room. This anomalous muscle was situated medially between the distal part of the tibia and the tendo calcaneus. The muscle arose from the anterior aponeurosis of the soleus muscle and was attached with a separate tendon to the calcaneus anteromedial to the tendo ...

The Cross-Leg Soleus Muscle Flap

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2000
Reconstruction of the lower limb can be a difficult problem, especially when located over the lower third of the leg, or when a large soft-tissue defect exists. When local flap coverage is not possible, a distant flap--free or pedicled--is indicated. There are, however, circumstances that preclude the use of a free flap, and in these situations cross ...

ACCESSORY SOLEUS MUSCLE: A PROBLEM OF AWARENESS

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1994
Reports of accessory soleus muscle are rare, perhaps as a result of it often remaining unrecognized. It presents as a swelling behind the ankle and may be mistaken for a tumour or inflammatory lesion, as occurred in the first of a series of three cases.

Cytoarchitecture of the fetal murine soleus muscle

American Journal of Anatomy, 1988
AbstractThe organogenesis of the soleus muscle of the 120 ReJ mouse (a mixed muscle, which in the adult contains approximately equal numbers of slow‐twitch oxidative and fast‐twitch oxidative‐glycolytic myofibers) was studied in spaced, serial transverse, and longitudinal sections of muscles of 14‐, 16‐, and 18‐day in utero and 1‐ and 5‐day postnatal ...

In vivo viscoelasticity of the human soleus muscle

Journal of Biomechanics, 1987
Muscle elasticity and the storage and recovery of strain energy in stretched muscle and tendon appear to enhance both the effectiveness of human movement (Bosco and Komi, 1979) and its efficiency (Asmussen and Bonde Petersen, 1974). While the enhanced performance of movements involving a pre-stretch is at least partly the result of elastic energy ...

String mitochondria in mouse soleus muscle

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2012
Red myofibers in mouse soleus muscle have two spatially distinct populations of mitochondria: one where these organelles are disposed in large clusters just inside the sarcolemma and the other situated between the myofibrils. In most cases, the interfibrillar mitochondria (IFM), which are much smaller than the subsarcolemmal ones (SSM), are arranged as

Getting the Most from the Soleus Muscle

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1996
The bipennate soleus muscle has properly become entrenched as the muscle flap of choice for coverage of the middle third of the leg. Yet its potential versatility in fulfilling many other indications has been understated. With minor alterations in the methodology for transfer, often the reach of the muscle can be extended to more proximal or even ...
