Peroneal tendon dislocation is an injury of the lateral ankle. It generally occurs after a dorsiflexion in a slightly everted foot, followed by a strong contraction of the peroneal muscles.
312A - Strain of muscle(s) and tendon(s) of peroneal muscle group at lower leg level, left leg [initial encounter] is a topic covered in the ICD-10-CM.

If the peroneal tendons are dislocating, surgery is required to fix the problem. Following surgery, there are usually no long-term effects.
The peroneal tendons are two tendons in the foot that run side-by-side behind the outer ankle bone. One peroneal tendon attaches to the outer part of the midfoot, while the other runs under the foot and attaches near the inside of the arch.

Dislocation of left ankle joint, initial encounter S93. 05XA is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S93. 05XA became effective on October 1, 2021.
CPT® 27840 in section: Closed treatment of ankle dislocation.
A talonavicular dislocation is a rare luxation of the foot, often after a high-velocity trauma. Up to 80% of the talonavicular dislocation is medial, 17% lateral. The lateral dislocation can be reduced under sedation with flexion in the knee, longitudinal traction on the foot and lateral pressure on the talus.
Q: What happens if it goes untreated? If left untreated, you'll experience immobility and severe pain. By getting treated early, it can help you avoid ruptures. Surgeons may treat the instability or peroneal tendonitis if caught early.
Many patients with peroneal tendon subluxation will eventually require surgery, especially when symptoms have not been controlled with nonsurgical measures. Retinaculum repair is gaining popularity.
When this occurs, the tendon can damage both restraining structures, including the soft tissue, known as the “superior peroneal retinaculum” (SPR), and also the bone itself. The pain can be quite significant and can lead to a pronounced limp and, in some cases, an inability to walk.
Peroneus longus and peroneus brevis are muscles that originate on the outer bone of the lower leg called the fibula. These become tendons above the ankle in order to attach the muscles to the foot.
The Peroneus Brevis is responsible for 63% of the power needed to evert the foot as well as assists in plantar flexion along with the Peroneus Longus. The peroneal muscles work together to provide dynamic lateral ankle stability during sudden ankle inversion stress.
Repair of peroneus tendon and groove deepening in the fibula of the peroneal groove, left. 2. Repair of the superior peroneal retinaculum, left. The two CPT codes I came up with to cover the procedures are CPT 27658 and 27675. Here is the procedure description:
The peroneus longus appeared to be in good condition without any flattening or signs of tearing. The broadening was debrided with the Metzenbaum scissors, and the tendon was tubularized and held with a running suture of 2-0 Ethibond.
In medicine, an enthesopathy refers to a disorder involving the attachment of a tendon or ligament to a bone. This site of attachment is known as the entheses.
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M76.72 and a single ICD9 code, 726.79 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
