July 8, 2021 updated by: Peking University Third Hospital

The Clinical Efficacy of Reattachment of the Superior Peroneal Retinaculum Versus the Bone Block Procedure for Recurrent Peroneal Tendon Dislocation

Clinical outcomes between reattachment of the superior peroneal retinaculum (SPR) and the bone block procedure were compared in this study to elucidate which procedure was safer and more effective.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

From 2012 to 2016, 25 patients with recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation underwent the bone block procedure(group A), and another 22 patients underwent reattachment of the SPR (group B). American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score, Ankle Activity Score (AAS), time to return to sports activity, rate of return to sports level, range of motion (ROM) of the ankle, rate of recurrence, and overall patient satisfaction were collected to evaluate outcomes between the two groups.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

A consecutive series of patients with recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation who underwent operative treatment between 2012 and 2016 were retrieved. Twenty-five patients underwent bone block procedure (group A), and 22 patients underwent reattachment of the SPR (group B)."

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • a traumatic recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation requiring surgery
  • a lack of response to at least 3 months of conservative treatment

Exclusion Criteria:

  • the presence of an acute peroneal tendon dislocation
  • a concomitant anterior talofibular ligament rupture

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Bone block procedure
patients with recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation underwent the bone block procedure
Procedure: bone block procedure
a 20 × 15 × 3 mm3 bone block was cut from the lateral malleolus, rotated backwards 45°, and sutured back to the periosteum of the lateral malleolus using non-absorbable sutures.
Reattachment of the superior peroneal retinaculum
patients with recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation underwent reattachment of the superior peroneal retinaculum
Procedure: Reattachment of the superior peroneal retinaculum
two suture anchors (Mini Quickanchor,DePuy Mitek) were inserted into the postero-lateral ridge of the lateral malleolus without damaging the cartilaginous ridge, after which the SPR was reattached to the lateral malleolus with the anchored suture. The inner layer of the false pouch was incised, and the outer layer (periosteum) was sutured with the SPR in a pants-over-vest style.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
AOFAS
Time Frame: 2 years after operation
The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Score combines subjective scores of pain and function provided by the patient with objective scores based on the surgeon's physical examination of the patient (to assess sagittal motion, hindfoot motion, ankle-hindfoot stability and alignment of the ankle-hindfoot). The scale includes nine items that can be divided into three subscales (pain, function and alignment). The minimum and maximum values of AOFAS are 100 and 0, respectively. And higher scores mean a better outcome.
2 years after operation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
VAS
Time Frame: 2 years after operation
The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is designed to present to the respondent a rating scale with minimum constraints. Respondents mark the location on the 10-centimeter line corresponding to the amount of pain they experienced. This gives them the greatest freedom to choose their pain's exact intensity. It also gives the maximum opportunity for each respondent to express a personal response style. The minimum and maximum values of VAS are 10 and 0, respectively. And higher scores mean a worse outcome.
2 years after operation
time to return to sports activity
Time Frame: up to 2 years
time to return to sports activity after surgery at each group
up to 2 years

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
