QID 4646 (Type "4646" in App Search)
A 55-year-old recreational tennis player presents to clinic after initial rehabilitation complaining primarily about pain and swelling along the posterior fibula. He states he sprained his ankle six months ago, and was treated with bracing and proprioceptive training. He notes multiple sprains in the past, but the pain from prior sprains was different and always resolved. After an MRI demonstrated a peroneus brevis tear he is taken to the operating room. During surgery you identify multiple longitudinal tears in the peroneus brevis tendon, and a 3 cm portion of the tendon with significant tendinosis in over 70% of the cross-sectional area. What is the appropriate surgical procedure?
