2023年11月3日 · Flexor digitorum brevis is situated lateral to abductor digiti minimi and medial to abductor hallucis muscles. This muscle runs deep to the thick layer of the plantar aponeurosis. Its tendons run medially to the common plantar digital nerves and vessels.

It arises by a narrow tendon, from the medial process of the tuberosity of the calcaneus, from the central part of the plantar aponeurosis, and from the intermuscular septa between it and the adjacent muscles. It passes forward, and divides into …

2022年2月1日 · Percutaneous FDB tenotomy proved to be safe, respecting FDL and plantar digital nerves. Percutaneous FDB tenotomy is effective regarding PIP arthrolysis but a technical improvement is required to achieve a reliable section of both FDB slips.

2024年8月9日 · The flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscle lies immediately superior to the plantar aponeurosis and inferior to the tendons of the flexor digitorum longus in the sole of the foot. Summary origin: medial process of calcaneal tuberosity and plantar aponeurosis insertion: sides of plantar surface of middle phalanges of 2 nd -5 th digits

2018年4月17日 · In this study, we demonstrate the utility of the FDB as a model for assessing skeletal muscle function across a range of methodologies commonly used within the skeletal muscle research community, including isometric force production, in vitro and in vivo imaging, and mitochondrial respiration.

Flexor Digitorum Brevis is the central muscle of the superficial layer of the plantar foot muscles. [1] . It lies in the middle of the sole, immediately superior to the plantar aponeurosis and inferior to the tendon of Flexor Digitorum Longus. [2]

2022年4月4日 · A recent study has demonstrated that the FDB facilitates elastic storage and return in its tendonous tissues during cyclical tasks designed to emulate the loading demands of steady-state locomotion ( Kelly et al., 2019 ).

2012年12月1日 · A biomechanical evaluation of intrinsic foot muscle function and, especially, of interosseous and lumbrical muscles, indicates the use of FDB tendons for surgical treatment of dynamic claw toe.

This unprecedented movement of the FDS muscles is dependent on muscle contraction and an attachment to tendon. Finally, we propose that striking similarities in the development of the FDS and the intrinsic flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscles and tendons of the hindlimb provide a compelling argument for serial homology of the FDS and FDB muscles.

2009年8月7日 · Flexor digitorum longus tendon transfer (FDL) is currently the gold standard for the correction of this problem. Transfer of the flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) has been recently proposed as an alternative method to treat such deformity.
