Background: The assessment of outcomes from the patient's perspective becomes more recognized in health care. Also in patients with chronic ankle instability, the degree of present impairments, disabilities and participation problems should be documented from the perspective of the patient. The decision about which patient-assessed instrument is most appropriate for clinical practice should be based upon systematic reviews. Only rating scales constructed for patients with acute ligament injuries were systematically reviewed in the past. The aim of this study was to review systematically the clinimetric qualities of patient-assessed instruments designed for patients with chronic ankle instability.

“…The foot was held in a slightly plantar flexed and everted position with a bump placed under the tibia, allowing the foot to reduce under the ankle mortise. 10 The initial modification of this technique includes Brostrom-Gould technique which focuses on subtalar instability beside the main purpose of primary ligament repair. This technique mobilizes the lateral portion of the extensor retinaculum and attach it to the distal fibula, superficial to the ligament repair.…”

“…Sulcus sign was observed ( Figure 1). AOFAS score components were checked preoperatively: pain (30), functional (7), maximum walking distance (5), walking surfaces (0), gait abnormality (8), sagittal mobility (4), hindfoot mobility (0), ankle-hindfoot stability (0), alignment (10), with a total score of 64. His ankle range of motion was also limited due to pain with Visual Analogue Score (VAS) ranging between 3 and 4.…”

Stable ankle after modified brostrom technique using one anchor with double suture at Sanglah Hospital: a case report

Ankle sprains are commonly seen injuries among athletic and young population, and it is necessary to stabilize the patient ankle as soon as possible. Authors report the cost-effective option of using a modified Brostrom technique with one suture anchor in a limited resource setting. Case a 24- year-old male came to the orthopaedic clinic with chief complaint of left ankle pain for the past 2 weeks after jumping and landing in a twisted position. Patient also complained of unstable ankle after the fall. On physical examination, the ankle showed tenderness and instability when anterior drawer test was performed. The patient was diagnosed with lateral ankle instability. This case report describes a modification to the original Brostrom procedure using one suture anchor to anatomically reconstruct the lateral ankle ligaments in treating high demand patient who have lateral ankle instability. After six months follow up, the patient has shown significant improvement on his left ankle. Despite of all the modifications of Brostrom procedure, the use of more suture anchors or sophisticated technique such as arthroscopy might result in increasing cost. Reasonably good outcome can still be achieved with modified Brostrom procedure that utilizes minimal incision, simple steps, and single suture anchor. Due to its cost-effectiveness, authors believe that modified Brostrom technique with one suture anchor is an effective and practical treatment option for lateral ankle instability. Brostrom technique using suture anchors as shown here can provide similarly good outcomes compared with other more complex techniques.

“…Lateral ankle sprain is an extremely common injury in sporting activities, with rupture of the lateral ankle ligaments accounting for more than 85% of all ankle sprains [1]. The anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) are most often injured, especially the former [1, 2].…”

Introduction. Chronic functional instability—characterized by repeated ankle inversion sprains and a subjective sensation of instability—is one of the most common residual disabilities after an inversion sprain. However, whether surgical reconstruction improves sensorimotor control has not been reported to date. The purpose of this study was to assess functional improvement of chronic ankle instability after surgical reconstruction using the remnant ligament. Materials and Methods. We performed 10 cases in the intervention group and 20 healthy individuals as the control group. Before and after surgical reconstruction, we evaluated joint position sense and functional ankle instability by means of a questionnaire. Results and Discussion. There was a statistically significant difference between the control and intervention groups before surgical reconstruction. Three months after surgery in the intervention group, the joint position sense was significantly different from those found preoperatively. Before surgery, the mean score of functional ankle instability in the intervention group was almost twice as low. Three months after surgery, however, the score significantly increased. The results showed that surgical reconstruction using the remnant ligament was effective not only for improving mechanical retensioning but also for ameliorating joint position sense and functional ankle instability.
