Peroneus longus harvest is a safe and reproducible technique with low complication rate. The rate of nerve complications post-harvest is grossly overestimated in the literature secondary to low-powered and low evidence studies. We believe that using our safe surgical technique for PL harvest with respect to surface landmarks allows for PL harvest with a low nerve complication rate.
