The study's aim is to determine the incidence of flexor hallucis tendon tears associated with os trigonum excision. The study will then compare the length until functional return to play of the patients who had flexor hallucis tendon tears with concomitant os trigonum excision versus those without flexor hallucis tendon tears who underwent os trigonum excision. Lastly, the study will be evaluating the patient complaints and physical exam findings before and after surgery and compare those without flexor hallucis tendon tears to those with flexor hallucis tendon repair.
