The patients were followed up for a minimum period of 6\u2009months and the functional outcome was evaluated using the American Orthopaedic Foot &amp; Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 30 patients were enrolled, and that included 15 patients in a prospective study and another 15 patients in a retrospective study. A total of 22 cases were followed up. The major tendons involved were extensor digitorum longus (60%) followed by a combination of 2 or more tendons (30%). Extensor hallucis longus and tibialis anterior were involved in 6.7% and 3.35% of cases, respectively. The mean follow-up was 16\u2009\u00b1\u20097.8\u2009months, and the mean AOFAS score was 99.36\u2009\u00b1\u20092.1, with a range of 90-100. The mean pain score was 39.2\u2009\u00b1\u20099, with a range of 30-40. The mean functional score was 49.36\u2009\u00b1\u20092.17, whereas the mean alignment score was 10.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Extensor tendon injuries of the foot and ankle are common injuries that require active surgical intervention.
