Dynamic hyperextension of the big toe and supination of the forefoot may occur in the swing phase of walking in children with various neurological disorders. Symptoms arising from this have been successfully corrected in 13 feet of 11 children by transfer of extensor hallucis longus to the insertion of peroneus brevis.
