title: Peroneal retinaculoplasty with anchors for peroneal tendon subluxation.
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.
