Flexor Hallucis Longus Transfer Improves Achilles Tendon Load to Failure in Surgery for Non-Insertional Tendinopathy: A Biomechanical Study.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2019
BACKGROUND Non-insertional Achilles tendinopathy is a common disorder that may be treated with surgical debridement. A flexor hallucis longus (FHL) transfer is recommended if debridement of ≥50% is performed; however, there are no biomechanical data to ...

Tendon Transfers for Tetraplegia

Hand Clinics, 2016
It is estimated that 65% to 75% of patients with cervical spinal cord injuries could benefit from upper extremity tendon transfer surgery. The goals of surgery are to restore elbow extension, as well as hand pinch, grasp, and release. Patients who have defined goals, actively participate in therapy, and understand expected outcomes, appear to have the ...

Principles of tendon transfers

Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation, 2016
Tendon transfers are carried out to restore functional deficits by rerouting the remaining intact muscles. Transfers are highly attractive in the context of hand surgery because of the possibility of restoring the patient's ability to grip. In palsy cases, tendon transfers are only used when a neurological procedure is contraindicated or has failed ...

Flexor hallucis longus transfer versus turndown flaps augmented with flexor hallucis longus transfer in the repair of chronic Achilles tendon rupture.

Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2017
BACKGROUND Repairs of chronic Achilles tendon ruptures are technically challenging due to large defects after scar excision. Multiple techniques for repair have been proposed but little consensus on best practice established.

Flexor digitorum longus tendon transfer

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 1993
A retrospective evaluation consisting of a written survey and physical examination was completed on flexor digitorum longus tendon transfer patients. The tendon transfer is used to alleviate symptoms and address imbalance of extrinsic and intrinsic muscles.

Tendon Transfers in Muscle and Tendon Loss

Hand Clinics, 1988
Tendon transfers in muscle and tendon loss offer some of the most gratifying results to both patient and surgeon. Poor results do occur at times in tendon transfer. When patients whose results were found to be less than expected were studied, the following problems were identified: 1. Acceptance of less than full passive range of motion before transfer.
