“…39,48,59 Wapner et al 59 reported on 7 female patients with tears of both peroneal tendons who had been treated with at least 2 previous operative procedures before undergoing staged reconstruction with a Hunter rod, followed by FHL transfer. This technique was also reported by Raikin et al 38 to stimulate formation of a secondary tendon sheath to receive the FHL graft in the setting of extensive scarring. However, Redfern and Myerson 39 qualitatively noted unanticipated scarring even with the staged procedure.…”

Peroneal tendon tears are a common but under-recognized source of ankle pain and dysfunction. Recognition of the characteristic symptoms, physical findings, and imaging results of peroneal tendon tears is essential for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Acute, limited tears of a single peroneal tendon may be debrided and repaired. However, by the time operative treatment is undertaken, many tears of a single tendon are sufficiently advanced that the surgeon may need to consider excision of the nonviable segment and tenodesis of the damged tendon to the to the adjacent peroneal tendon. Irreparable tearing of both peroneal tendons may be treated with flexor tendon transfer and/or allograft reconstruction. This review article focuses on diagnosis and operative treatment of peroneal tendon tears, including the treatment algorithms, operative technique, and published outcomes.

Case: A 23-year-old woman sustained a skin defect in the anterior ankle involving the extensor retinaculum (ER) and 10 cm of extensor tendons (ETs) after a wide resection of clear cell sarcoma. The skin defect was reconstructed with free latissimus dorsi flap, ER with tensor fascia lata, and ETs with 2-staged tendon reconstruction using silicone rod interposition, followed by semitendinosus and gracilis tendon grafts. Four years postoperatively, she achieved 92% of ankle and 70% of great toe motion of the contralateral side. Conclusion: This reconstruction technique was useful for a large soft-tissue defect at the anterior ankle.
