Peroneal tendinosis and subluxation are lifestyle-limiting conditions that can worsen if not properly diagnosed and treated. Adequate knowledge of ankle anatomy and detailed history and comprehensive physical examination is essential for diagnosis. Peroneal tendinopathy is likely to result from overuse, whereas subluxation often precipitates from forceful contraction of peroneals during sudden dorsiflexion while landing or abruptly stopping. In athletes, conservative measures remain first-line treatment of tendinopathy, but surgery is often immediately indicated in cases of recurrent symptomatic subluxation or dislocation. Surgical technique varies on the type, mechanism, and severity of injury, but most procedures have a high success rate.

Accurate diagnoses of peroneal pathologies remains a challenge due to limitations of conventional 2D (dimensional) imaging, which can impact long-term patient outcomes. This study evaluates MRI accuracy and inter-reader reliability of peroneal compartment pathology for 2D and 3D MRI. A consecutive series of patients who underwent peroneal compartment surgery with preoperative 1.

Proximal peroneal tendinopathy is a relatively rare condition and can cause severe pain, discomfort, and often disability, especially if it coexists with other pathologies of the lower limbs. This case report discusses a 32-year-old male surgeon with the condition of chronic lateral ankle pain due to proximal peroneal tendinopathy, complicated by an anterior cruciate ligament sprain, a posterior cruciate ligament ganglion cyst, and early medial meniscus degeneration. His ability to perform surgeries has been compromised due to the need to stand for prolonged periods.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to validate a scale called ALR-RSI to help surgeons assess athletes' psychological readiness to return to sports after peroneal tendon surgery.
- Involving 57 patients, the research found a strong correlation between the ALR-RSI scale and established outcome measures (FAOS and FAAM), indicating its effectiveness.
- ALR-RSI proved to be a valid tool for predicting athletes' postoperative success, with a high internal consistency and strong discrimination ability, aiding surgeons in evaluating recovery.
Article Synopsis
- This study compares the accuracy of MRI and ultrasound (US) for diagnosing peroneal tendon injuries before surgery, focusing on conditions like tendinopathy, tears, and subluxation.
- After reviewing 21 patient cases, it was found that MRI has a slight edge for diagnosing tendon tears (100% accuracy) while US is more effective for diagnosing subluxation (100% sensitivity).
- Both imaging methods show 100% accuracy for diagnosing tendinopathy, highlighting their reliability in identifying peroneal tendon pathologies.

Background: Ankle sprains are a common musculoskeletal injury among the general population and often involve the lateral ligament complex. Although the majority of ankle sprains are treated successfully with nonsurgical conservative measures, an estimated 5% to 20% of ankle injuries ultimately develop chronic lateral ankle instability (CAI). Multiple surgical treatment modalities for the lateral ankle complex exist, such as anatomical and nonanatomical reconstruction.
