ABSTRACT
There are different treatment options for extensor hallucis longus injuries. For primary repair, the end-to-end suture is recommended. The treatment of reruptures or tendon defects is challenging, and a wide range of procedures have been used in this regard, including primary and secondary repairs with and without auto- and allografts. To overcome the disadvantages of second-site morbidity and to achieve high primary stability, we demonstrate a technique using a local tendon graft in combination with a strong Pulvertaft suture technique in a case of rerupture of the extensor hallucis longus tendon.
