“…6 The ATTL can be observed arthroscopically. 7 There are already several reports of arthroscopic lateral ankle ligament reconstruction for the anterior talofibular ligament, [8][9][10][11] calcaneofibular ligament, [12][13][14][15][16][17] posterior talofibular ligament, 18 and lateral talocalcaneal ligament. 19 Here we describe the arthroscopic reconstruction of the ATTL using a free tendon graft (ARATTL).…”

Deltoid ligament injuries account for 5.1% to 15.8% of ankle sprains and occur with concomitant lateral ankle sprains. The anterior tibiotalar ligament (ATTL), located within the deep layer of the deltoid ligament complex, connects the talus and the tibia on the medial side of the ankle and controls ankle eversion and rotation. If conservative treatment for chronic medial ankle instability after an ankle sprain fails, ATTL repair or reconstruction might be necessary. Arthroscopic reconstruction techniques of the lateral ankle ligaments recently have been reported. Here, we describe arthroscopic reconstruction of the ATTL using a free tendon graft (ARATTL). This technique is less invasive than other treatments and results in a more stable medial ankle joint.

“…Previously, for a failed modified Broström procedure, ligament reconstruction with autograft or allograft tendon had usually been indicated for revision surgery. 20,28,33 Song et al 46 demonstrated that their reconstruction group (12 patients) showed a significantly higher AOFAS score and lower visual analog scale score than those in the Broström group (16 patients) at 12 months after surgery, although the difference between the 2 groups was not statistically significant 30 months later. Anatomic reconstruction appeared to give the best results, although it might be more invasive than anatomic repair.…”

Background: Suture tape (ST) augmented repair, an alternative to traditional Broström repair (BR), may protect the repaired anterior talofibular ligament during ligament healing. No systematic review of cohort studies has been conducted to compare traditional BR with ST-augmented repair for chronic lateral ankle instability. Purpose: To review the current evidence in the literature to ascertain whether ST-augmented repair is superior to traditional BR in managing chronic lateral ankle instability. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: A literature search was performed to identify relevant articles published in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases in accordance with PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. The search included cohort studies comparing the efficacy of BR and ST-augmented repair procedures in terms of incidence of instability recurrence, functional scores, talar tilt angle (TTA), anterior talar translation (ATT), and complication rate. Methodological quality was assessed using the Jadad scale for randomized studies and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for nonrandomized studies. Results: A total of 4 clinical trials with 254 patients were included. No significant differences were detected between BR and ST-augmented repair procedures in terms of incidence of recurrent instability, American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society score, Foot and Ankle Outcome Score, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure, TTA, ATT, or complication rate. The ST group appeared to have a shorter operation time compared with the BR group. Conclusion: No significant differences were found between ST-augmented repair and BR surgery regarding incidence of recurrent instability, functional outcome scores, or complication rates. Although technically challenging, the ST-augmented repair procedure appears to be a safe and fast option.

“…Minimally invasive lateral ligament repair and reconstruction can be performed from an anterior approach with the patient in the supine position. 28,33 A noninvasive distraction device may be used with standard anteromedial and anterolateral portals, especially if concomitant cartilage lesions are present. Additional portals are frequently required in cases of lateral ligament reconstruction, but care must always be taken to stay within the "safe zone" in the lateral region bordered by the distal fibula, the superior Lateral approach, lateral decubitus position.…”

The role of arthroscopy in the management of ankle and hindfoot pathology management has increased greatly in recent years with the potential for lower complication rates, faster recovery, improved access, and improved outcomes when compared to open techniques. Procedural variations exist as techniques aim to optimize lesion access, decrease operative time, and improve patient safety. Our goal is to summarize the described approaches and patient positionings common in minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery for anterior, lateral, and posterior ankle pathologies. A survey of pathology organized by arthroscopic approach and a review of recent advances in concomitant lesion management may be useful when planning arthroscopic foot and ankle surgery. Level of Evidence: Level V, expert opinion.
