Rationale: Suture anchors are increasingly used to fix soft tissue to bone. Favorable outcomes of the modified Brostrom operation (MBO) using suture anchors have been reported.

Here, we present a rare case of successful treatment of a chronic sinus tract infection developing after the MBO using a suture anchor.
