Abstract

Dislocation of the tibialis posterior tendon occurred in an 18-year-old man and in a 36-year-old woman during running activities. Several years earlier both patients had suffered minor injuries to the affected ankle. The mechanism of the current injury was dorsal flexion and inversion of the foot. Suturing the flexor retinaculum to the posterior margin of the medial malleolus obtained good results in both cases. Dislocation of the tibialis posterior tendon is rare, but should be considered in athletes with even minor traumas to the foot accompanied by pain on the inside of the ankle. Verf.-Referat
