A study of 186 cadavers found that 156 cadavers (83.9%) had both palmaris and both plantaris tendons. The palmaris was absent in 22 cadavers (12%); 12 cadavers (6%) were missing the plantaris tendon. If the tendon was missing from one side, there was a 67% chance that the contralateral tendon would also be missing. In all instances where both a palmaris and a plantaris tendon were absent (2.2%), the tendons were missing bilaterally. Fourteen cadavers (7.5%) missing bilateral palmaris tendons still had bilateral plantaris tendons, and 2 cadavers (1%) had no plantaris but had both palmaris tendons. Of the cadavers that had plantaris tendons, 11% had tendons that were 2 mm or less in width and of questionable value for grafting purposes. No correlation was noted between the size of the plantaris tendon and the size of the individual or the size of the palmaris tendon.
一项对186具尸体的研究发现，156具尸体（83.9%）同时有掌长肌腱和跖肌腱。22具尸体（12%）缺少掌长肌腱；12具尸体（6%）缺少跖肌腱。如果一侧肌腱缺失，对侧肌腱也缺失的几率为67%。在掌长肌腱和跖肌腱均缺失的所有情况（2.2%）中，双侧肌腱均缺失。14具尸体（7.5%）双侧掌长肌腱缺失但仍有双侧跖肌腱，2具尸体（1%）没有跖肌腱但有双侧掌长肌腱。在有跖肌腱的尸体中，11%的肌腱宽度为2毫米或更小，用于移植的价值存疑。未发现跖肌腱大小与个体大小或掌长肌腱大小之间存在相关性。
