Longitudinal ruptures of the peroneal tendons. A report of a rugby player.
Rupture of one or both peroneal tendons is rare. We present a case of longitudinal ruptures in both peroneus longus and brevis tendons. We obtained a very satisfactory clinical result with surgical debridement of the abnormal granulation tissue and proliferated synovial sheath.
