This rupture can be easily overlooked because the clinical examination is limited owing to acute pain related to a closed ankle fracture. Complete rupture of the tibialis posterior tendon can be identified by a loss of tension during ankle fracture fixation, but partial rupture is more difficult to detect because the tibialis posterior tendon can maintain its tension. A few cases of complete rupture of the tibialis posterior tendon combined with ankle fracture have been reported. It is well-known that failure to diagnose a rupture of the tibialis posterior tendon can lead to long-term disability and a planovalgus foot. However, to our knowledge, this is the first report of partial rupture of the tibialis posterior tendon in the English literature. Herein, we describe a patient with a neglected partial rupture of the tibialis posterior tendon combined with a medial malleolar fracture.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7547\/15-078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,29]],"date-time":"2016-12-29T16:52:30Z","timestamp":1483030350000},"page":"449-452","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Partial
