Case Discussion
A male presented with lateral ankle pain. The ankle radiograph revealed no bony injury (not uploaded, no copyright). The clinical diagnosis was peroneal tendon dislocation. The ultrasound shows dislocation of both peroneal tendons with superior peroneal retinaculum injury. There were no associated lateral ankle ligaments injuries.
