Mechanism of the peroneal tendon dislocation is mainly the ankle trauma and commonly caused by severe peroneal tendon contraction at ankle dorsiflexion state. Peroneal tendon tears are frequently combined in recurrent dislocation. The peroneal tendon dislocation from the fibula groove can be confirmed with ultrasound scanning. Recurrent dislocation needs surgical treatment and usually gains good clinical outcome with fibula groove deepening procedure. Tibialis anterior tendon rupture is frequently found in old age but active patients who had tendency of tendon weakness due to chronic tendon attrition, repeated steroid injection, diabetic tendinopathy or inflammatory arthropathy.

Chrisman-Snook 술식은 광범위한 절개 및 비복 신경 손상 우려 등과 함께 기술적으로 복잡하다고 여겨지고 있으나, 단비골건을 전부 희생하지 않고 전거비 인대와 종비 인대를 함께 재건하면서 동시에 이식건의 등장성을 확보할 수 있어 술 후 환자의 만족도가 비교적 높고 재발 가능성이 적은 훌륭한 술식으로 사료된다.

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.

Tear of the peroneal tendons are diagnosed increasingly. Peroneal tendons should always be evaluated when identifying the source of pain in patients with chronic ankle pain. Thorough physical examination with imaging studies are required to achieve accurate diagnosis and favorable outcome. The present article reviews the anatomy and current treatment options for peroneal tendon tears.

Purpose : The biceps femoris tendon (BFT) and lateral collateral ligament (LCL) in the knee were formerly known to form a conjoined tendon at the fibular attachment site. However, the BFT and LCL are attached into the fibular head in various patterns. We classified insertion patterns of the BFT and LCL using MR imaging, and analyzed whether the LCL attaches to the fibular head or not. Materials and Methods: A total of 494 consecutive knee MRIs of 470 patients taken between July 2012 and December 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 224 males and 246 females, and patient age varied from 10 to 88 (mean, 48.6). The exclusion criteria were previous surgery and poor image quality. Using 3T fat-suppressed proton density-weighted axial images, the fibular insertion patterns of the BFT and LCL were classified into following types: type I (the LCL passes between the anterior arm and direct arm of the BFT's long head), type II (the LCL joins with anterior arm of the long head of the BFT), type III (the BFT and LCL join to form a conjoined tendon), type IV (the LCL passes laterally around the anterior margin of the BFT), and type V (the LCL passes posteriorly to the direct arm of the BFT's long head). Results: Among the 494 cases of the knee MRI, there were 433 (87.65%) type I cases, 21 (4.25%) type II cases, 2 (0.4%) type III cases, 16 (3.23%) type IV cases, and 22 (4.45%) type V cases. There were 26 cases (5.26%) in which the LCL and BFT were not attached into the fibular head. Conclusion: The fibular attachment pattern of the BFT and LCL shows diverse types in MR imaging. The LCL does not adhere to the head in some patients.

Purpose: we would like to suggest the proper surgical methods according to the severity of instability by analyzing the results. Materials and Methods: Between January 1998 and August 2002, eighty five patients have been operated on because of posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI). The materials were included the patients who had followed-ups for over 2 years in sixty one patients and the patient's assessments were done by clinical score (OAK, IKDC) and posterolateral drawer and dial test. Results: Through our results, the fibular tunnel turned out to be superior compared to the tibia tunnel method in rotational stability. Hughston-Jacobson methods and biceps tenodesis showed poor results. Fibula head tunnel was superior to tibia tunnel in rotational stabiliaty Conclusion: The surgical technique that passes the modified posterolateral corner sling through the fibula head tunnel may provide good clinical results in grade II PLRI. It is necessary to reconstruct both tibia and fibula tunnel in grade III PLRI. When there is combined varus instability, a positive result may be obtained if an additional LCL reconstruction is performed.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficiency of fibular groove deepening and superior retinacular reconstruction for peroneal tendon subluxation. Materials and Methods: Six patients who were treated by fibular groove deepening and superior retinacular reconstruction for peroneal tendon subluxation from March 2000 to August 2004 were reviewed retrospectively. Results: No recurrent subluxation of peroneal tendons had occurred. All patients were return to sports by 4 months after surgery and also gained nearly normal range of motion. Five patients were completely pain free, but one patient had mild occasional pain that limit his sports activities. Conclusion: Fibular groove deepening and superior retinacular reconstruction was believed to be a reliable procedure for peroneal tendon subluxation in spite of some minor complications.

Purpose: Several methods of anatomical reconstruction for chronic lateral ankle instability has been reported to avoid the problems of nonanatomical reconstruction. Precise reconstruction of the normal anatomy is essential to the restoration of normal joint mechanics and stability. The problem with anatomical reconstruction is that it is very difficult to reconstruct the normal anatomic course of the ligaments. We thought making one tunnel at the fibular attachment of anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament was more anatomical than making separate tunnels for each ligaments because the two ligaments are contiguous. In this article, the basis of anatomical reconstruction of the lateral ankle ligaments was reviewed and a technique of reconstruction using semitendinosus was introduced.
