PURPOSE: During standard anatomical dissection for a medical anatomy course, we encountered an unusual bilateral variant of a unipennate flexor digitorum accessorius longus (FDAL) muscle, a supernumery muscle of the deep posterior leg and medial ankle.
METHODS: We documented the muscles course and measured the diameter and length of the FDAL muscle belly, as well as the full length of its tendinous attachments.
RESULTS: On both right and left legs, the FDAL originated from the proximal posterior fibula and distal one-third of the flexor hallucis longus muscle. The tendon had a distal attachment on the flexor digitorum longus (FDL) tendon and traveled with the FDL tendon as it inserted on the third distal phalanx. The left FDAL full length was 42.54 cm; the length of the muscle belly was 16.26 cm; and the circumference of the muscle belly was 4.44 cm. The right FDAL full length was 44.20 cm; the length of muscle belly was 12.06; and the circumference (belly) was 4.44 cm. Surrounding musculature and neurovasculature follow standard anatomical courses.
CONCLUSION: This anatomical documentation provides opportunities for clinicians to consider mechanical influences of the FDAL on plantar foot function and further consider the accessory ankle muscles that have the potential to cause compressive neuropathies such as tarsal tunnel syndrome.
