Abstract:
Chronic recurrent peroneal dislocation often responds poorly to conservative treatment. Surgical treatment has been reported to be more effective than conservative treatment, and various surgical treatment methods are available: superior peroneal retinaculum repair or reattachment, peroneal groove deepening procedures, rerouting procedures, or bone block procedures. Although various treatment options have been reported, there is no consensus regarding which treatment is better. This paper proposes a distal fibular rotational plasty that can prevent recurrent peroneal dislocations and recover its function well by securing a stable peroneal tendon excursion space.
