Zigzag tenotomy of the extensor hallucis longus through minimally invasive surgery in cadaveric specimens: description of a new technique
The study confirms the effectiveness and safety of elongating the extensor hallucis longus tendon of the hallux using minimally invasive surgery. The zigzag technique for tendon elongation may be considered a viable minimally invasive treatment option for addressing tendon hyperextension in patients with HAV.
