There are many described techniques for the surgical treatment of lateral ankle instability. The purpose of this study is to quantify the variation in surgeon technique for lateral ankle instability treatment.Methods: Surveys were sent to 62 orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeons regarding surgical technique for the treatment of lateral ankle instability. Clinical agreement was defined as greater than 80% agreement to assess the cohesiveness of surgical methods as described by Marx et al. Results. Response rate was 49/62 (79%). There was clinical agreement for not using bone tunnels and not using metal anchors. All other factors lacked clinical agreement. A greater average number of throws and knots (4.2 for each, range 1-6 throws, range 2-12 knots) were used by surgeons that do not believe knots cause pain compared to an average of 3.9 (range, 1-6) throws and 4.0 (range, 2-15) knots by surgeons who do believe knots cause pain. The association that surgeon who believed knots do cause pain and thus used fewer knots and throws was not statistically significant (P > .05). The preferred material by surgeons in our study are as follows: nonabsorbable braided suture (26/49, 53%), suture tape (15/49, 31%), and fiber tape (4/49, 8%). Among surgeons who use absorbable suture (34/49, 69%), there was no significant difference (P > .05) between surgeons who believe knots cause pain (23/34, 68%) and those who do not (11/34, 32%).Discussion and conclusion: Among this small sample of orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeons, there is wide variation in surgical technique for lateral ankle instability treatment and little agreement on the clinical standard of care. This disagreement highlights the need for comparative outcome studies in the treatment of ankle instability.Level of evidence: Level III: Retrospective cohort study.","PeriodicalId":73046,"journal":{"name":"Foot & ankle specialist","volume":" ","pages":"259-263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41222097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate the angle, angular velocity, and movements of the ankle joint, and the muscle activity of peroneus longus (PL), tibialis anterior (TA), and gastrocnemius (GAS) muscles during multidirectional landings in athletes with CAI.Methods: Nineteen athletes with CAI (≤25 Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool-Thai Score) participated. A Vicon Nexus motion analysis system synchronously collected data with an AMTI force plate and surface electromyography (EMG) to capture kinematics, kinetics, and muscle activity, respectively. Participants were asked to perform single-leg jump-landing tests in forward (0°), 30° diagonal, 60° diagonal, and lateral (90°) directions. Ankle joint kinematics, kinetics, and muscle activity of PL, TA, and GAS were analyzed. Repeated measure ANOVA (analysis of variance) and Friedman tests were used to analyze the main effects of the jump-landing direction.Results: Athletes with CAI exhibited significant differences in ankle angles, angular velocities, ankle movements, and average muscle activity of GAS between directions. Greatest average EMG of GAS muscle was observed during landing in the lateral direction compared with the forward and 30° diagonal directions.Conclusion: Lateral and diagonal direction movements showed the greatest risks associated with recurrent ankle sprains.

This was done within the clinical contexts of isolated syndesmosis injury and syndesmosis injury with concomitant ankle fracture. Clinical outcomes data included Olerud-Molander (OM) and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores, visual analog scale for pain, and days missed from sport competition. Parametric data were compared with Student t tests. Effect size was computed using Cohen's d.Results: In ankle fracture patients, syndesmosis injury demonstrated a large effect size for OM (d = 0.96) and AOFAS (d = 0.83) scores. In athletic populations without concomitant ankle fracture, syndesmosis injury demonstrated a large effect size on days missed from competition (d = 2.32).Discussion: These findings confirm the magnitude of the negative impact of syndesmosis injury in athletic populations with isolated injury and in ankle fracture patients.

Spiral fifth metatarsal fractures have been studied previously in professional dancers. However, little has been reported about outcomes of these injuries in the general population. The objective of this study was to examine patient demographics of those who sustain this injury and their functional outcomes, as stratified by treatment type. Methods. A total of 186 \"nonprofessional dancer\" patients with a fifth metatarsal fracture who were treated by one orthopaedic surgeon at our academic medical center were identified through chart review. All patients were allowed to weight bearing as tolerated (WBAT). Time to healing, persistence of pain, range of motion, and complications were recorded. Independent samples t tests, 1-way analysis of variance, and Fisher exact tests were used for analysis. Results. Thirty-seven of the 186 patients with fifth metatarsal fractures reviewed were identified as having a spiral fifth metatarsal fracture with appropriate follow-up. The cohort was 78.4% female with a mean age of 50.3 years. Twenty-two were initially treated in a controlled ankle motion (CAM) boot, 14 in a postoperative shoe, and 1 continued in their own shoes. All patients were allowed to WBAT. All fractures healed by a mean of 3.1 months. By the end of the follow-up period, 67.6% of patients had full range of ankle motion, with 5.4% reporting feeling stiff, 27.0% reporting mild persistent pain, and 2.7% reporting significant persistent pain.
