1. We report two patients with pain on the lateral side of the ankle and foot which was due to stenosing tenosynovitis of the peroneal tendons caused by an osteochondroma of the peroneal tubercle.

2. Surface electrodes recorded the activity of the peroneal muscles after a sudden inversion on a tilting platform.

3. Mononeuropathies occur as carpal tunnel syndrome, truncal nerve lesions, diabetic amyotrophy (a lumbosacral plexopathy) and peroneal palsy.

4. Avulsions of the base of the fifth metatarsal bone are common and are caused by forceful contraction of the short peroneal tendon against an inverted foot, as when stepping off a curb or tripping
