Four young adults (average age 24 years) presented with complaints of posterior ankle pain after running. Bilateral accessory soleus muscles were diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging or CT scan. Symptoms were present an average of 3 years before diagnosis. Two patients had previous surgery (ankle arthroscopy, tarsal tunnel release, and leg compartment release) before diagnosis and treatment. Obliteration of Kager's triangle (posterior ankle fat pad) was present on six out of eight lateral ankle radiographs. Posteromedial prominence was present on four out of eight ankles. Operative exploration confirmed the presence of five muscles and fasciectomy was performed. Follow-up (17 to 29 months) showed good relief of symptoms in all patients and return to long-distance running for three patients. Dissection of 47 preserved cadavers revealed three accessory soleus muscles in the 94 extremities (two muscles were bilateral in one cadaver).

ABSTRACT Peroneal tendon tears are one of many causes of chronic lateral ankle pain. The goal of surgery is to restore function and provide dynamic stabilization. Surgical repair is indicated for tears comprising of less than 50% of the cross-sectional area of the tendon. If the peroneal tear is greater than 50% and the tissue bed remains mobile, an allograft reconstruction may be performed. In this case report, reconstruction using a peroneal tendon allograft was performed on a 21-year-old female with chronic lateral ankle pain and weakness after retearing her peroneal brevis 10 weeks status postprimary repair. Technique involved excising the portion of diseased tendon and anastomosing the proximal and distal ends to a peroneal tendon allograft. Six weeks postoperation, patient regained full range of motion and strength with minimal pain. How to cite this article Gross CE, Kildow BJ, Parekh SG.

Introduction: The development of limb musculature takes place between the fifth and seventh weeks of intrauterine life. The genes MYO-D and MYF5 regulate the limb musculature development and any defect in these may lead to either a partial or complete loss or an addition to the normal muscle morphology. This case report presents the observation of an accessory tendon of the Peroneus brevis muscle in the left lower limb of a 70 year old male cadaver during the routine dissection for undergraduate students at Government Medical College, Miraj. The variant insertion of the Peroneus brevis tendon on the calcaneal tubercle is clinically important to note in cases of lateral ankle pain and instability. The presence of an accessory tendon of the peroneus brevis muscle may also be a cause of the longitudinal splitting of the muscle which should be taken into consideration while making a diagnosis and planning surgeries around the lateral aspect of the ankle.
