Allograft Reconstruction of Irreparable Peroneal Tendon Tears: A Preliminary Report

“…The average length of the intercalary segment reconstructed was 12 cm ± 3.9 (range, [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. There were no differences in outcomes based on tendon graft length.…”

“…[5][6][7][8][9] These abnormalities can be observed with concomitant chronic ankle instability, cavovarus foot deformities, low-lying peroneus brevis muscle bellies, superior peroneal retinacular insufficiency, fibular bone spurs, and following severe ankle sprains. 6,[10][11][12] Several classification systems have been described to characterize peroneal tendon tears in order to improve the decision-making in operative management. 4,13 Acute partial thickness tears can often be tubularized or repaired primarily.…”

Peroneal brevis rupture in a cerebral palsy patient

“…Saxena et al [14] reviewed 49 peroneal tendon tears in 41 patients; there were 24 peroneus brevis tears. There are multiple reports of longitudinal split in the peroneus brevis tendon [1, [15][16][17][18] or longus tendon [19,20]. Peroneus longus tendon tears are less common than peroneus brevis tears.…”

Return to Sport and Physical Activity After Calcaneoplasty for Insertional Achilles Tendinosis

“…The Tegner score is a simple 10-point scoring system originally designed for knee ligament injuries. Since its development, it has been used for other joint evaluations as well (30,31). The Halasi ankle score is a 10-point scoring system of the level and type of sporting activity, with 10 points indicating the highest level of activity and 0, the lowest.…”
