Abstract
Hypertrophy of the peroneal tubercle is a rare cause of peroneal tendon synovitis. The peroneal tubercle of the calcaneal bone is an anatomical structure that has both structural and biomechanical functions. When abnormal in shape and size, it can cause friction or impingement of the peroneal tendons, resulting in tenosynovitis and/or tendon tears. Clinically, the patient presents with tenosynovitis and a prominent peroneal tubercle palpable on the lateral calcaneus. Radiographs and ultrasound are sufficient for diagnosis. Additional CT and MRI are often performed to better visualize the bony structures and soft tissues, respectively. Treatment consists of conservative therapy for at least 6 weeks. If conservative therapy fails, or if the tendon is torn, surgery may be required
