Question: what are the extensor tendons of the ankle?
Answer: The extensor retinaculum acts as a pulley, stabilizing the anterior tibial (ATT), extensor hallucis longus (EHL), extensor digitorum longus (EDL), and the peroneus tertius (PT) tendons. The tibialis anterior is the major extensor of the ankle, estimated to provide 80% of dorsiflexion strength.
