“…Sun and colleagues published on plate fixation for arthrodesis in chronic syndesmotic instability through a small case series of 8 patients over 8 years reporting significant improvements in AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores and mean Visual analog Scale pain scores. 7 patients returned to sports; however, 50% of the patients noted ankle range of motion limitations compared to the contralateral side 68…”

Historically, ankle instability research has focused primarily on the lateral ligament complex. However, more recently there has been an increased attention on the role of the deltoid ligament and syndesmosis in chronic ankle instability. We describe historical perspectives as well as the current state of evidence and techniques for a more comprehensive approach to ankle instability. Level of Evidence: Diagnostic Level V. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
