Abstract
Based on a case study, the injury pattern and surgical procedure for traumatic dislocation of the posterior tibial tendon is presented. A 32-year-old ice hockey player suffered a direct impact from a puck at the dorsomedial aspect of the inner ankle. In the course of the injury a ganglion developed due to recurrent dislocation of the posterior tibial tendon. Intraoperatively, a distracted retinaculum and a flattened retromalleolar sulcus were present. An open wedge osteotomy and suture anchor refixation of the retinaculum were performed. This procedure is described in the context of a review of the literature.
