	Schilling Tendon Procedure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Schilling Tendon Procedure is a temporary surgical procedure developed by Boston Red Sox team physician William Morgan, MD to stabilize the peroneus brevis tendon so that it is prevented from anterior displacement with ankle flexion.
		The procedure is named for Major League Baseball pitcher Curt Schilling, who required the surgery to be able to pitch in Game 6 of the 2004 ALCS and Game 2 of the 2004 World Series.
		Schilling was the winning pitcher in both games, and his blood-soaked sock became a banner of sorts for Boston Red Sox fans during their team's improbable run towards their first world championship in 86 years.

		After practicing on a cadaver, Morgan and three assistants performed the procedure on Schilling on Monday morning, using three sutures to form what was described as a "tunnel of tissue" to keep the tendon from popping and rubbing across the bone on the outside of Schilling's ankle.
		Schilling's tendon is loose because the sheath that normally holds it in place is torn.
		Schilling experimented with a custom-designed high-top shoe flown in from Reebok's factory in China and used in a Sunday bullpen session, but the medical staff decided to try what Epstein called a "last-ditch scenario." The sutures were not used on the tendon itself, just in the tissue to form a barrier.

		Schilling tested the cleat in the bullpen at Fenway Park Friday and Sunday, but the Sox remained skeptical about their season rising or falling on the shoe alone and scrambled to find alternatives.
		The tendon is held snug in a groove on the fibula bone by a thin, yet strong sheath.
		Schilling needed to field his position as well as pitch, which meant scrambling to cover first on grounders, including one by Bernie Williams in the fourth inning.
