Abstract

Background: The aim of the present study was to investigate the morphologic features and mechanical properties of plantar fascia (PF), flexor hallucis brevis (FHB), flexor digitorum brevis (FDB), and abductor hallucis (AbH) muscles in individuals with halluks valgus (HV) and to compare the results with individuals without HV.
