A simple surgical technique is described for tendon stabilization, after decompression of the fibular groove, as a result of an anomalous extension of the peroneus brevis muscle into the Fibular groove.
Abstract
We report a case of peroneal tendon subluxation as a result of an anomalous extension of the peroneus brevis muscle into the fibular groove, causing an encroachment phenomenon, stretching-out of the superior peroneal retinaculum, longitudinal splitting of the peroneus brevis tendon, subluxation of the peroneal tendons, and peroneal tenosynovitis. We describe a simple surgical technique for tendon stabilization, after decompression of the fibular groove.

Longitudinal attrition of the peroneus brevis tendon in the fibular groove: an anatomic study.

TL;DR: It is found that chronic ankle pain disability may be related to attrition of the peroneus brevis tendon in the fibular groove, and the evidence of synovitis and chronic inflammation associated with tendon attrition is documented.
