Tendon diameter is measured
Drill first with 2.0mm drill bit and
then 3.0mm drill bit if needed or
augmenting with fibertape
Drill phalanx and metatarsal
Transfer tendon through bone
tunnel with use of tendon passer
![Page 22: Extensor digitorum brevis tendon transfer PresentationGFAC2017.pdfPost Operative Findings 120 day followup WB without difficulty in normal shoe gear Preop AP Post op AP % change Pre](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060302/5f0898ed7e708231d422cbfc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Surgical Technique
Tendon diameter is measured
Drill first with 2.0mm drill bit and
then 3.0mm drill bit if needed or
augmenting with fibertape
Drill phalanx and metatarsal
Transfer tendon through bone
tunnel with use of tendon passer
Pass tendon through phalanx
base and enter tunnel on
opposite side of the phalanx from
the insufficient ligament
Tendon exits phalanx plantarly
and routed from plantar to dorsal
through metatarsal bone tunnel

Surgical Technique
Whipstitch technique allows toe
to be tensioned quite easily
Verify with intraoperative
fluroscopy
Insert 3.0mm biotenodesis screw
proximally
May add additional screw distally
if using fibertape

Reassess Deformity
Reassess hammered digit and
need for additional surgery
Flexible deformity may no longer
need addressed after transfer
MTP may appear subluxed
plantarly due to dorsal
capsulotomy but resolves with
repair and WB.
Reapproxmate EDL and close in
anatomic layers

Discussion
Imbalance between extrinsic and
intrinsic forces lead to lesser toe
deformities
MTP stabilized by medial and
collateral ligaments, plantar
plate, capsule and tendon forces
Unopposed forces
Improper shoe gear, trauma, genetics, inflammatory disorder, neuromuscular disease
Cadaveric study
Consistent transverse tears of
plantar plate proximal to capsular
insertion on proximal phalanx
Collateral ligament tears,
complete plantar plate disruption
noted in severe deformities
