Abstract

During the routine dissection of lower limb in a female cadaver of age 61 years, a rare variation in the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle was noticed on the both legs. An EDL muscle with small belly dividing into two slips, which inserted on to the second and third digits on the right leg, whereas on the left leg divided into three slips, which inserted on to the second, third and fourth digits. There was also an accessory EDL muscle arising from the middle third of the medial surface of the fibula and inserted on to the fifth digit in the left foot, and it inserted on to the fourth and fifth digits in the right foot. To our knowledge, such variation hasn't been reported in literature and apprehension of such variations is important for surgeons and orthopaedicians with regards to contractures and surgical procedures concerning the anterior leg and dorsum of the foot.

指长副伸肌-一种罕见的变异。
在对一名61岁女性尸体进行常规下肢解剖时,发现两腿的指长伸肌(EDL)发生了罕见的变异。一种有小腹的EDL肌肉,分为两个卡瓦,插入右腿的第二和第三指,而左腿上分为三个卡瓦,插入第二,第三和第四指。还有一个附属EDL肌起源于腓骨内侧表面的中间三分之一并插入到左脚的第五指,它插入到右脚的第四和第五指。据我们所知,此类变异尚未在文献中报道,了解此类变异对外科医生和骨科医生在处理腿前侧和足背挛缩和手术过程中很重要。
