Arthroscopic treatment of anteromedial ankle impingement

Arthroscopic treatment of anterior impingement in the ankle.

We performed a prospective study to assess the long-term outcome of 57 arthroscopic debridement procedures carried out to treat anterior impingement in the ankle. Using preoperative radiographs, we grouped patients according to the extent of their osteoarthritis (OA). The symptoms of those with grade-0 changes could be attributed to anterior soft-tissue impingement alone. Patients with grade-I ...

Arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement.

Arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement.

The etiology of degenerative joint disease of the hip remains unsolved. A precursor for some patients, especially younger ones, may be hip impingement. Repetitive microtrauma at maximal flexion can cause chronic pain from the abutment at the femoral head-neck junction caused by an abnormal offset. Chronic impingement from an aspherical head can lead to degenerative labral tears and acetabular c...

Arthroscopic treatment for impingement of the anterolateral soft tissues of the ankle.

We treated 52 patients with impingement of the anterolateral soft tissues of the ankle by arthroscopic debridement. All had a history of single or multiple inversion injuries, without instability. One half had negative stress radiographs (stable group), while the others were positive (unstable group). Their mean age was 31 years and there were 35 men and 17 women. The results were assessed at a...
