Abstract:
PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficiency of fibular groove deepening and superior retinacular reconstruction for peroneal tendon subluxation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Six patients who were treated by fibular groove deepening and superior retinacular reconstruction for peroneal tendon subluxation from March 2000 to August 2004 were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS: No recurrent subluxation of peroneal tendons had occurred. All patients were return to sports by 4 months after surgery and also gained nearly normal range of motion. Five patients were completely pain free, but one patient had mild occasional pain that limit his sports activities. CONCLUSION: Fibular groove deepening and superior retinacular reconstruction was believed to be a reliable procedure for peroneal tendon subluxation in spite of some minor complications.
