Category:HindfootIntroduction/Purpose:The aim of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of anatomical variations of the musculotendinous junction of the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) muscle, the relationship between FHL tendon or muscle and the tibial neurovascular bundle at the level of the posterior ankle joint in human cadavers.Methods:Seventy embalmed feet from 20 male and 15female cadavers, the cadavers’ mean age was 65.4 (range from 14 to 82) years, were dissected and anatomically classified to observe FHL muscle morphology define the relationship between FHL tendon or muscle and the tibial neurovascular bundle . The distance between the musculotendinous junction and thehe relationship between FHL tendon or muscle and the tibial neurovascular bundle was determined.Results:The three morphology types of FHL muscle were identified: a long lateral and shorter medial muscle belly, which was observed in 63 specimens (90%).; equal length medial and lateral muscle bellies, this variant was only observed i...
