Newly proposed classification of plantaris tendon insertion based on branching patterns: a morphological study
Our study indicates the existence of new types of PM tendon insertions that could potentially influence the development of Achilles tendinopathy. Variations in the anatomical morphology of the PM tendon may lead to potential conflicts with the Achilles tendon and the tibialis posterior tendon, thereby increasing the risk of tendinopathy.
