  • Title: Peroneus tertius reconstruction for flexible clawtoes associated with cavus deformity: a preliminary report.
    Author: Brody PJ, Grumbine N.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1984; 23(5):357-61. PubMed ID: 6501794.
    Abstract:
    Numerous procedures and techniques are used to correct clawtoe deformity. This paper reports on a new method of correcting clawtoe deformity surgically. Treatment of this condition is not new, and a survey of the literature is offered initially. The theory behind the tendon transposition is discussed and symptoms associated with this deformity are outlined. Variations of this new procedure are listed and illustrated clinically. The authors recommend the peroneus tertius redirection and/or reconstruction procedure as the most adequate way of reducing clawtoe deformity associated with flexible cavus foot.
