    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Sports Medicine
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Peroneal tendon luxations are injuries affecting the tendons that run behind the outer ankle bone.
    • These injuries can cause pain and instability, impacting ankle function.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of surgical treatment for peroneal tendon luxations.
    • To identify optimal diagnostic and surgical strategies for acute and chronic cases.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 23 patients (25 peroneal tendon luxations) operated on between 1973 and 1985.
    • Diagnostic methods included tenography and tangential X-rays.
    • Surgical techniques involved retinaculum suturing, with optional screw fixation for acute cases, and the Kelly procedure for chronic luxations.

    Main Results:

    • All 25 peroneal tendon luxations were successfully treated surgically.
    • At an average 8.4-year follow-up, 18 patients (20 luxations) were symptom-free.
    • Minor complications included limited ankle range of motion (3 patients), decreased skin sensitivity (1 patient), and tendon sheath friction (1 patient).

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical repair of the retinaculum is an effective treatment for acute peroneal tendon luxations.
    • The Kelly procedure is a viable option for chronic peroneal tendon luxations.
    • Tenography and specific X-ray views aid in precise diagnosis of these injuries.
