Abstract

We report a case of painful os peroneum syndrome. That was one of the largest os peroneums reported. The patient was a 49-year-old woman who complained of lateral base aspect of her right foot. It was not possible to reduce her complaints by conservative methods using equipment. We then performed excision of the os peroneum. After surgery, her pain disappeared and ankle motion was not limited. We recommend an operative method for prolonging pain caused by os peroneum syndrome.
