Chronic rupture of the peroneal tendons can be a functionally limiting condition with a multitude of causes. Conservative and operative interventions are heterogenous and tailored to the functional demands of the patient. Surgical plans are based on muscle viability, patient preference, and surgeon expertise. Clinical outcomes evidence remains limited in this domain, and further well-designed studies are warranted to guide treatment.
