Selective tendon lengthening in the management of acquired claw toes

후천성 갈퀴족 변형의 선택적 건연장술 - 증례 보고 4례 -

Rare complications of distal tibia fracture are claw-toe deformity, cavus deformity and checkrein deformity. These complications may be due to contracture of the muscles of the deep posterior compartment of the leg after a compartment syndrome. These 4 cases were treated by selective tendon lengthening of flexor tendon at the retromalleolar level.
