Eckert and Davis Grade 3 Superior Peroneal Retinaculum Injury: Treated by Endoscopic Peroneal Retinaculum Reconstruction and Complicated by Malposition of the Suture Anchors
نویسنده
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Eckert and Davis grade 3 superior peroneal retinaculum injury is rare and the optimal treatment is not yet determined. CASE REPORT A 57 year-old lady sprained her left ankle resulting in grade 3 injury of the superior peroneal retinaculum and was treated by endoscopic retinaculum reconstruction. The fracture healed and the peroneal tendons were stabilized. However, it was complicated by protusion of the suture anchors into the posterolateral ankle gutter. The implants were successfully removed endoscopically. CONCLUSION Proper selection of the size and dimension of the suture anchor and preoperative planning with computed tomogram is important for usage of suture anchors in the lateral malleolus.

Endoscopic Superior Peroneal Retinaculum Reconstruction
Post-traumatic peroneal tendon subluxation or dislocation is most commonly due to injury to the superior peroneal retinaculum. Acute repair of the retinaculum is an option for active athletes who desire quick return of sport activity. In general, conventional open surgeries require extensive exposure of the injured superficial peroneal retinaculum and have potential risks of scar formation, sur...
متن کاملPeroneal retinaculoplasty with anchors for peroneal tendon subluxation.
Recurrent subluxation of the peroneal tendons is rare but can produce marked functional impairment in athletes. We describe a technique for the reconstruction of the superior peroneal retinaculum using anchors. This procedure is safe and effective in managing instability.

Retinacula are thickenings of deep fascia in the region of joints that hold down the tendons preventing them from bowing out of position. In the region of ankle, number of such retinacula have been described. Retinacula like superior and inferior extensor retinacula have been described which hold down the tendons of leg muscles passing to the foot beneath them. As the extensor tendons of the le...
متن کاملEndoscopic Treatment of Intrasheath Peroneal Tendon Subluxation
Intrasheath subluxation of the peroneal tendons within the peroneal groove is an uncommon problem. Open exploration combined with a peroneal groove-deepening procedure and retinacular reefing is the recommended treatment. This extensive lateral approach needs incision of the intact superior peroneal retinaculum and repair afterwards. We treated three patients with a painful intrasheath subluxat...
متن کاملIntrasheath subluxation of the peroneal tendons.
BACKGROUND Dislocation or subluxation of the peroneal tendons out of the peroneal groove under a torn or avulsed superior peroneal retinaculum has been well described. We identified a new subgroup of patients with intrasheath subluxation of these tendons within the peroneal groove and with an otherwise intact retinaculum. METHODS The cases of fifty-seven patients with painful snapping of the ...
