Acute Peroneal Injuries - When to Fix, When to Rehab

Benjamin Cullen, DPM, FACFAS

In this focused lecture, Ben Cullen DPM, FACFAS will review the evaluation and management of acute peroneal injuries associated with lateral ankle sprains, emphasizing how to distinguish cases that require surgical intervention from those best managed conservatively. Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of peroneal anatomy, key physical exam findings, and the role of imaging in diagnosis. Discussion will include common pathology such as tendonitis, partial and complete tears or ruptures, and tendon subluxation, with practical guidance on identifying the clinical indicators that determine when to fix and when to rehab for optimal patient outcomes.
