- Abstract
This article responds to a critical opinion on the topic of toe flexion deformity after free vascularized fibula surgery. The authors address key points raised by the critic, including preoperative assessments, the vascular supply of the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) muscle, examination of toe flexion deformity, and differentiating toe deformities. They provide detailed explanations and evidence to support their findings. The authors emphasize the importance of early detection and intervention to prevent irreversible damage and improve the quality of life for patients.
