• Basketball 45% of injuries
• Soccer 31% of injuries
• Anatomy
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Biomechanics
• Dorsiflexion: ATFL loose, CFL taut
• Plantarflexion: ATFL taut, CFL loose
• ATFL
• Adduction in PF, restricts IR of talus in mortise
• CFL
• Adduction in neutral/DF
• PTFL
• Prevents ER in DF
• IOL
• Controls rotation
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Pathology
• Associated injuries
• Tear of P. long/br.
• Talar chondral injury
• Medial ligament & syndesmotic injuries
• Fx lateral talus & fibula, 5th metatarsal fx, anterior process
calcaneus fx
• Post-sprain neuritis
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Diagnosis
• Immediate swelling & pain, difficulty WB
• Tenderness over affected structures
• ROM
• Pain with anterior drawer, “suction sign” with anterior
subluxation of talus
• Inversion stress- pain/instability
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Radiologic Evaluation
• 3 views
• Talar Tilt
• Anterior drawer
• MRI
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Clanton Classification
• I - Stable  symptomatic tx
• II - Unstable
• Group 1: non-athlete, older  functional tx
• Group 2: young athlete
• A: (-) stress test  functional tx
• B: (+) stress test  surgical
• C: Subtalar instability  functional tx
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Acute
• RICE
• Mobilization with support
• Lace-up, stirrup brace, walking boot, cast
• Atrophy, stiffness
• Physical therapy
• ROM, peroneal, dorsiflexor strengthening, Achilles stretching
• Proprioceptive: wobble, mini-trampoline
Lateral Ankle Sprains
• Surgical treatment
• Acute
• Controversial
• Young athlete
• Gross instability
• Associated fracture
• Talocrural dislocation
• Direct repair/fixation of bony fragments
Surgical Options
• Modified Brostrum
• Imbricate using native tissue
• Supplement using IER
• Anatomic allograft reconstructions
Old Technique vs New
Technique
“Chrisman Snook /
Watson Jones” Style Anatomic Secondary Procedure
using Bio Tenodesis Screws
Lateral Ankle Ligament
Reconstruction w/ Free Graft
Overview

• Use of semitendinosus allograft tendon for
chronic lateral ankle instability
• Retrospective study of n=28 ankles
• Reconstruction ATFL/CFL with interference
screws
• Mean follow-up 19 months
• VAS scores 62 (p<0.05)
• AOFAS scores 6391 (p<0.05)
Taken from Caprio et al, Foot Ankle Clin 2006
Knee Surg SportTram Arth 2012
• Talar tilt 17.8 ° 6.7 °(p<0.05)
• Anterior drawer 10.0  4.5mm (p<0.05)
• 21/24 (88%) satisfied with surgery
• Conclusion
• Viable option for chronic lateral ankle instability
with poor ligamentous tissues
Trauma & Fractures
•Fall/MVA
•Usually non-operative
─ Swelling control
─ Early ROM
─ PWB
Calcaneal Tuberosity Fracture
Collinge C and Heier K., OTA
Tuberosity Avulsion
•Surgical urgency
• Pull of Achilles brings
fragment near skin
• Plantar flexion splint
in ER
• Percutaneous
reduction with lag
screws/plate
Collinge C and Heier K., OTA
Tuberosity Avulsion
Parekh Technique
•Posterior split technique
•Release Achilles insertion
•Remove fragment
Parekh Technique
•Harvest FHL
•Transfer FHL
•Close Achilles split
•Reattach Achilles insertion site
Ankle Dislocations
• Usually associated w/ fractures
• Mechanism
• Foot usually in DF position
• Defined by direction of talus
• Medial, lateral, posteromed, posterior, rotatory
• Physical
• NV exam
• Gross deformity
• Diagnosis
• Ankle films
• Triage
• Refer to ortho immediately
• Treatment
• Reduce & repeat NV exam
• Jones dressing w/ splint or AO splint
Subtalar Dislocations
• Physical
• Gross deformity
• NV exam
• Medial dislocation
• Calcaneus displaces medially
• Talar head prominent laterally
• Mechanism
• Inversion
• Lateral dislocation
• Calcaneus displaces laterally
• Talar head prominent medially
• Mechanism
• Eversion
Subtalar Dislocations
• Diagnosis
• Ankle xrays
• CT scan
• Triage
• Refer to ortho immediately
• Treatment
• Medial dislocation
• Prompt CR w/ knee flexion
• Failed CR secondary to talar head entrapment in EDBr
• Lateral dislocation
• Prompt CR w/ knee flexion
• Failed CR secondary to interposed PTT
• Place in AO splint
