Abstract

The accessory tendon of the extensor hallucis longus is a common type of extensor hallucis longus variation. This is a case of a 38-year-old female patient who initially considered conservative treatment for a suspected partial rupture, but finally underwent surgery after being diagnosed with a complete rupture of the main tendon and accessory tendon medial to the main tendon on MRI scan.

긴엄지발가락폄근의 보조힘줄은 긴엄지발가락폄근 변이의 일종이며 드물지 않게 관찰된다. 저자들은 긴엄지발가락폄근 힘줄이 파열된 38세 여성 환자에서 신체진찰상 긴엄지발가락폄근의 부분파열이 의심이 되어 보존적 치료를 고려하였으나 자기공명영상에서 주힘줄은 완전 파열되고 주힘줄과 나란히 주행하는 보조힘줄이 발견되어 수술적 치료를 시행한 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
