Summary

Initial imaging for ankle sprains includes weight-bearing X-rays. Advanced imaging like MRI or ultrasound can confirm cartilage damage or hematoma, guiding surgical repair or ligamentoplasty decisions for optimal outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology
  • Sports Medicine

Background:

  • Ankle sprains are common injuries requiring accurate diagnosis.
  • Radiological assessment is crucial for determining injury severity and guiding treatment.
  • Surgical options include anatomic repair and ligamentoplasty, each with distinct outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the recommended radiological work-up for ankle sprains.
  • To discuss the utility of various advanced imaging modalities.
  • To compare the clinical outcomes of surgical repair versus ligamentoplasty.

Main Methods:

  • Initial assessment involves weight-bearing AP and lateral stress views.
  • Advanced imaging (arthroMRI, arthroscanner, MRI, ultrasonography) is considered for specific indications.

  • Clinical outcomes of surgical interventions were evaluated objectively and subjectively.

    • Main Results:

    • Weight-bearing X-rays are essential initial steps.
    • Ultrasonography offers high accuracy for detecting joint hematoma in emergencies.
    • Both anatomic repair and ligamentoplasty yield similar overall outcomes, with key differences in surgical complications and residual instability.

    Conclusions:

    • The choice of imaging depends on clinical suspicion and expected information.
    • Ultrasonography is a valuable tool for emergency diagnosis of hemarthrosis.
    • Anatomical repair offers fewer surgical complications, while ligamentoplasty provides better subtalar joint stabilization.
