Peroneal Tendon Dislocation associated with Calcaneal Fracture (Six Cases Report) / 대한족부족관절학회지

Peroneal tendon dislocation in association with calcaneal fracture is not common and difficult to diagnose and is often overlooked. It can result in peroneal tendon tear and tenosynovitis which in turn lead to ankle pain and dysfunction. Early detection with through physical examination and CT scan is important to reduce the subsequent tendon dysfunction. We experienced 6 cases of peroneal tendon dislocation associated with calcaneal fracture, and treated 3 of them at the time of fracture operation and treated the other 3 after calcaneal fracture surgery due to sustained pain. We report the results with a review of the literature.
