Peroneal tendon dislocation is a rare injury often misdiagnosed as a sprain. Prompt surgical repair is recommended for optimal outcomes in recent cases.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Peroneal tendon dislocation is a rare condition involving displacement of the peroneal tendons from the retro-malleolar groove.
  • It is predominantly caused by trauma and often presents in emergency settings.
  • Surgical management is the primary treatment approach for this condition.

Observation:

  • A case of a 24-year-old adult with a closed right ankle trauma, forced into a varus and supine position, is presented.
  • Initial diagnosis was a benign ankle sprain, but peroneal tendon dislocation was confirmed 14 days later.
  • Intraoperative findings revealed a Type II retinaculum rupture according to Eckert and Davis classification.

Findings:

  • A simple suture technique, the Exner method, was employed for surgical repair.

Related Experiment Videos

  • The patient achieved good functional results 14 months post-surgery.
  • The case highlights the importance of considering peroneal tendon dislocation in the differential diagnosis of ankle injuries.

    • Implications:

    • This case underscores the diagnostic challenges in differentiating peroneal tendon dislocation from ankle sprains.
    • It emphasizes the necessity of surgical intervention for recent peroneal tendon dislocations.
    • The successful outcome with the Exner method suggests its efficacy for retinaculum repair in such injuries.
