“…The presence of chronic peroneal tendon subluxation or dislocation and peroneal tenosynovitis presents with chronic peroneal pain and swelling [14]. Peroneal tendon injuries or degeneration especially if Clinical studies related to tendoscopic management of other tendon sheaths have been already published for stage 1 tibialis posterior tendon dysfunction [2,18] and for toe flexors [11]. Authors of both studies concluded that tendoscopic management is an effective and minimal invasive surgery.…”

The course of the flexor hallucis tendon (FHL) is divided into three zones. Zone 1 is located behind the ankle joint, from the musculotendinous junction to the orifice of the tunnel underneath the sustentaculum tali. Zone 2 is located from the tunnel underneath the sustentaculum tali to the knot of Henry. Zone 3 is located from the knot of Henry to the tendon insertion to the base of the distal phalanx of the big toe. The zone 1 FHL tendon is examined with posterior ankle endoscopy with the posterolateral and posteromedial portals. The zone 2 FHL tendon can be examined through the posteromedial and the plantar portals. The zone 3 FHL tendon is examined with the toe flexor tendoscopy. By means of different endoscopic approach to the each zone of the FHL tendon, the complete course of the tendon can be examined from the musclotendinous junction to its insertion.

Tendoscopy is an apparently safe and reliable procedure to manage some foot and ankle disorders.The most common foot and ankle tendoscopies are: Achilles; peroneal; and posterior tibial tendon.Tendoscopy may be used as an adjacent procedure to other techniques.Caution is recommended to avoid neurovascular injuries.Predominantly level IV and V studies are found in the literature, with no level I studies still available.There are many promising and evolving endoscopic techniques for tendinopathies around the foot and ankle, but studies of higher levels of evidence are needed to strongly recommend these procedures.
