A Closer Look At The Use Of Interference Screws For Lateral Ankle Stabilization

چکیده

Given the common nature of ankle sprains and the fact that 85 percent involve lateral ankle ligament injury, these authors assess the research on techniques for lateral ankle stabilization and the use of interference screw fixation. They also offer pertinent step-by-step pearls on a technique that utilizes a split peroneus brevis tendon with interference screw fixation to help address chronic ankle instability.

Healing of Complete Tear of the Anterior Talofibular Ligament and Early Ankle Stabilization after Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma: a Case Report and Literature Review

Lateral Ankle sprain (LAS) is a common sports injury associated with recurrent ankle sprain, chronic ankle instability(CAI) and post-traumatic ankle osteoarthritis (PTOA). Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) has been increasingly used forherapeutic applications in sports-related injuries, and is thought to stimulate tissue healing. We reported a case ofLAS with complete tear of anterior talofibular liga...

Technique for utilization of an interference screw for split peroneus brevis tendon transfer in lateral ankle stabilization.

We present a technique for split peroneous brevis lateral ankle stabilization using an interference screw as the fixation device. The interference screw provided stable fixation by way of physiologic tension and restored lateral ankle instability while preserving the range of motion in the surrounding joints.

Creep Behavior of Biodegradable Triple-Component Nanocomposites Based on PLA/PCL/Bioactive Glass for ACL Interference Screws

Background: The short-time creep behavior for a series of biodegradable nanocomposites which is used as implantable device into body is a crucial factor. In the current paper, we aimed to study the effect of bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGn) on creep and creep-recovery behaviors of PLA/PCL blends at different given load and different applied temperatures. Method: A series of biodegradab...

Comparison of initial compression of the medial, lateral, and posterior screws in an ankle fusion construct.

BACKGROUND One of the requirements for successful ankle arthrodesis is adequate compression by the fixation across the fusion surfaces. A common screw construct for ankle fusion is three crossed screws from proximal-to-distal. Because the screws are inserted nearly orthogonal to each other, it is possible minimal additional compression is obtainable once the first screw is inserted. The aim of ...
