Abstract
PURPOSE: To study the possibility of tendoscopic treatment of recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation. METHODS: The case of one patient is described including the tendoscopic technique to deepen the fibular groove. RESULTS: In this single case, there were no complications, recovery time was short, and there was no recurrence of peroneal tendon dislocation. CONCLUSION: Though it seems possible to deepen the fibular groove tendoscopically, further studies are necessary to determine the role of tendoscopy in recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation.
