Summary

At the foot and ankle group at the Department of Orthopaedics, Uppsala University Hospital, the routine is to perform a tendon transfer of peroneus longus to brevis in case of a ruptured peroneus brevis tendon in the ankle. The reports of patient outcome from this surgery varies in different studies. The aim of the current study is to analyse how well the patients think their general health has improved after the surgery, and how they perceive that the foot function has changed after the surgery. In an objective way the changes in gait after surgery will be measured with gait analysis.
