Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Peroneal tendon injuries can mimic common ankle sprains.
  • Recurrent dislocations often result from trauma.
  • Misdiagnosis can lead to delayed or incorrect treatment.

Observation:

  • A case is presented where recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation was initially mistaken for an ankle sprain.
  • The injury occurred concurrently with an inversion ankle sprain in the case study.
  • Self-diagnosis and self-treatment were factors in the delayed accurate diagnosis.

Findings:

  • Anatomical considerations of the peroneal tendons are reviewed.
  • The biomechanical mechanism of peroneal tendon dislocation is discussed.
  • Various therapeutic options for this condition are explored.
