Peroneal retinaculoplasty with anchors for peroneal tendon subluxation.

TLDR
A technique for the reconstruction of the superior peroneal retinaculum using anchors using anchors is described, safe and effective in managing instability.
Abstract
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.

Peroneal tendons subluxation.

TL;DR: It appears that high-demand individuals should be primarily managed surgically, and retinaculoplasty seems to be, when indicated, the best surgical option: it affords less complications and a high rate of return to sports without reducing their activity levels.

Peroneal Subluxation: Surgical Results in 31 Athletic Patients

TL;DR: The patients with peroneal subluxation in this study were able to return to their sport in approximately 3 months, and those with concomitant tendon tears took longer, although further study is needed to see if this is associated with longer-standing symptoms.
