Longitudinal peroneal tendon tears are rare but treatable. Surgical intervention effectively relieved symptoms in seven patients, with MRI aiding diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Longitudinal tears of the peroneal tendons are infrequent injuries.
  • This study focuses on tears affecting the peroneus brevis and peroneus longus tendons.

Observation:

  • Seven cases of longitudinal peroneal tendon tears were analyzed.
  • Patients presented with symptoms requiring evaluation and treatment.
  • Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging was utilized for diagnostic purposes.

Findings:

  • Four cases involved the peroneus brevis tendon, and three involved the peroneus longus tendon.
  • Surgical treatment resulted in symptom relief for all patients.
  • MR imaging identified hypertrophied peroneal tendons, aiding in diagnosis.

Implications:

  • A diagnostic algorithm for longitudinal peroneal tendon tears is proposed.
  • Surgical treatment is an effective option for these uncommon injuries.
  • MR imaging is a valuable tool for pre-operative diagnosis of peroneal tendon pathology.
