Fig. 3 — Biomechanical test setup. Light-reflecting markers were attached to the proximal aspect of the fifth metatarsal and to the fixation cup in order to record kinematic movements (angulation measurement). The distal aspect of the fifth metatarsal was fixed in a cup which was clamped in a machine vice. The peroneus brevis tendon was kept moist with saline solution until testing. The peroneus brevis muscle was fixated to the 858 Mini Bionix® (MTS® Systems Corporation) mechanical testing frame by the use of a cryoclamp. The construct was loaded in tension by the MTS testing machine.
