The accessory soleus.

The literature relating to accessory soleus muscles has been reviewed, and two further cases are here presented. The appearance of two cases in one hospital within a four-year period would suggest that the condition is, after all, not uncommon; prior awareness of it may on occasions permit an expectant approach or (if symptoms related to exertion are present) a planned and conservative surgical procedure.

Chondromalacia of the patella.

Where chondromalacia of the patella is resistant to conservative treatment, and where the existence of a Crooks ridge can be inferred from the clinical or X-ray findings, then an operative search for such a ridge, with trimming both of the ridge and of the affected area of the patella, offers a more promising surgical solution than other minor operative procedures, and a less drastic solution than patellectomy.
