Reinserción del colgajo fibroperióstico en la luxación de los tendones peroneos.

Recurrent dislocation of the peroneal tendons over the lateral malleolus is an uncommon injury. Acute dislocation is frequently unrecognized and often misdiagnosed as an ankle sprain. Occurs in young athletes. Is usually the results of a skiing accident. The retinaculum is elevated from the lateral malleolus along with the periosteum with the tendons lying between periosteum and bone. We present three patients with a traumatic peroneal-ten-don dislocation treated surgically by reconstruction of the retinaculum with transosseous reattachement, described by Meary, were clinically evaluated after an average follow-up interval of five years, with excellent results.
