Abstract:
Objective To study surgical techniques for the treatment of traumatic recurrent dislocation of the peroneal tendons. Methods A total of 21 cases of traumatic dislocation of the peroneal tendons from 1986 to 2003 were treated with the Watson-Jones operation. Results A follow-up series was carried out in 15 cases for 1~15 years (mean, 4.9 years). Recurrence of dislocation occurred in 1 case, as a result of trauma, while the rest of 14 cases had returned to normal sports or competitions. Conclusions The Watson-Jones operation for recurrent dislocation is technically feasible and minimally invasive, offering satisfactory outcomes.
