Ultrasound Case Peroneus Brevis Tendon Tear
  • Diagnosis Peroneus Brevis Tendon Tear Adjacent
    to Orthopaedic Staple in Calcaneus
  • History Patient with history of prior surgery
    with metallic staple along lateral calcaneus.
    Patient presents with lateral ankle pain near
    staple site. Longitudinal and transverse
    sonograms are shown.
  • Findings On the left, the staple (white arrow)
    is seen in a long axis with a portion of the
    peroneus brevis (pb) tendon draped over it. The
    metallic staple displays a dirty shadow (green
    arrow), characteristic of metal. The image on

    The deep surface of the tendon is irregular
