All patients had undergone 3 months of conservative treatment. The mean time from injury to surgical treatment was 8.4 (range, 5\u201312) months. All patients had associated injuries including distal tibiofibular fracture (n=6), distal fibular fracture (n=1), and crush injury around the ankle (n=1); they were treated with intramedullary nailing (n=6), long leg splinting (n=1), and short leg splinting (n=1).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n After a mean follow-up of 3.4 (range, 1\u20137) years, the FHL tendon was lengthened by a mean of 1.7 (range, 1.6\u20131.8) cm, and the mean American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society hallux score increased from 59 (range, 52\u201367) to 89 (range, 80\u201390).
