Peroneal Tendon Subluxation Treatment
Peroneal Tendon Subluxation Treatment Surgery in Hawaii
Peroneal tendon subluxation surgery treats instability of the peroneal tendons as they move out of their normal groove behind the fibula, often causing snapping, pain, and recurrent ankle symptoms.
How Surgery Is Performed
Surgery may involve repair or reconstruction of the superior peroneal retinaculum, deepening of the fibular groove, and stabilization of the tendons to prevent recurrent displacement.
Goals of surgery include:
Stabilizing the peroneal tendons
Eliminating painful snapping
Restoring normal tendon tracking
Preventing tendon tearing
Recovery After Surgery
Recovery focuses on protecting tendon stability.
Typical recovery progression includes:
Immobilization with non–weight bearing or protected weight bearing
Gradual progression to full weight bearing
Physical therapy focused on stability, strength, and gait training
Gradual return to sport and uneven-surface activity
Risks and Considerations
Risks include stiffness, recurrent instability, nerve irritation, or persistent symptoms.
