Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Spontaneous rupture of the tibialis anterior tendon is an uncommon occurrence that most often affects men in their fifth to seventh decades. These ruptures occur through abnormal tendons, but may cause little disability. Early repair does seem to improve the likelihood of a good result, however. The following is a case report, and the English literature is reviewed.
