A tendon transfer is the movement of a tendon from its normal anatomical location to another area of the foot or ankle. Tendons are usually transferred to restore normal motion to the foot and ankle that have lost their function. A common problem is the loss of the ability to lift the leg, which is called leg drop. This can be the result of nerve or muscle damage from a stroke, injury, or other illness. This muscle weakness or paralysis reduces movement and can lead to bending or twisting of the leg, making it difficult or painful to stand, walk, or wear shoes. Some tendon transfers allow the ankle and foot to move up and down and regain some strength and movement. Others bring the foot into a position that makes it easier to walk, stand, and wear shoes but does not increase the range of motion. Realigning the foot and ankle can also reduce pain by distributing pressure more evenly across the foot. In some cases, tendon transfer can eliminate the need for a brace. Connect with DR.
