Knotless Tendoscopic Peroneal Retinaculum Repair Technique for Recurrent Peroneal Tendon Dislocation

Peroneal Tendon Dislocation: A Report of Two Cases

“…The very low incidence may also be due to frequent misdiagnoses as ankle sprains [8,9]. The main cause of the injury is sports accidents [10,11] and the main described mechanism is sudden dorsiflexion and eversion of the foot with forced contraction of fibular muscles [2,10]. According to the Eckert-Davis classification system, the injury can be graded on a scale of 1 to 3 [4].…”

“…Clinically, the diagnosis of peroneal dislocations may be a challenge due to the similarity of the mechanisms between this entity and other frequent ankle injuries [1,2,5,11]. However, conventional radiography, ultrasound, MRI, and CT scan are all known to help elucidate the integrity of the peroneal tendons and diagnose injuries [1,2,13].…”

“…Following acute phases of peroneal tendon dislocations, the conservative treatment seems to be the first choice [11,14]. However, the dislocation's reoccurrence rate may be as high as 60% [11,13].…”
