Abstract
Background: A peroneus longus to brevis tendon transfer is recommended for a severely torn peroneus tendon, but there is little research on the outcome. We conducted a prospective cohort study to examine patient-reported outcomes after this procedure.
Methods: Thirty-two patients underwent a peroneus longus to brevis tendon transfer and lateral ankle ligament reconstruction, 11 had an additional calcaneal osteotomy. The Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) and Short Form-36 (SF-36) were assessed preoperatively, six and 12 months after surgery.
Results: Preoperative mean FAOS was 51.7 (SD 17.8) compared with 72.7 (SD 21.2) at 12 months, an improvement of 21 (95 % CI 12.7-28.0) (p < 0.0001). SF-36 improved significantly in the three domains involving physical function and bodily pain (p < 0.007).
Conclusion: Patient-reported outcomes improved significantly through peroneus longus to brevis tendon transfer. This procedure is worth considering for patients with a severely damaged peroneus tendon.
Level of evidence: Level II: Prospective cohort study.
期刊介绍:
Foot and Ankle Surgery is essential reading for everyone interested in the foot and ankle and its disorders. The approach is broad and includes all aspects of the subject from basic science to clinical management. Problems of both children and adults are included, as is trauma and chronic disease. Foot and Ankle Surgery is the official journal of European Foot and Ankle Society.
The aims of this journal are to promote the art and science of ankle and foot surgery, to publish peer-reviewed research articles, to provide regular reviews by acknowledged experts on common problems, and to provide a forum for discussion with letters to the Editors. Reviews of books are also published. Papers are invited for possible publication in Foot and Ankle Surgery on the understanding that the material has not been published elsewhere or accepted for publication in another journal and does not infringe prior copyright.
