Abstract
Abstract: It is well established that ankle arthroscopy may be used as an alternative to address chronic ankle instability (CAI). As this minimally invasive technique becomes popularized, an advanced anatomic understanding and new devices have been developed to address the ankle ligament pathologies. Within this context, fully arthroscopic and anatomic techniques were developed to repair and reconstruct the ankle ligaments. This article provides an update on the indications, diagnoses, and technical descriptions of the anatomic arthroscopic techniques used for chronic ankle instability. Level of Evidence: Diagnostic Level IV.
期刊介绍:
Techniques in Foot & Ankle Surgery offers a unique opportunity to master the most innovative and successful surgical techniques for correction of foot and ankle disorders. Featuring contributions from the world"s foremost orthopaedic surgeons and podiatrists, this quarterly journal supplies step-by-step details on these techniques. The contributors explain the rationale, indications, and contraindications for each procedure, identify the pitfalls and potential complications, and provide invaluable tips for improving results. The journal is illustrated cover to cover with intraoperative photographs and drawings, including several in full color.
