Chronic lateral ankle instability affects many after acute injuries. Anatomical repair of ankle ligaments is recommended, with specific techniques for complex cases like hypermobility.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Biomechanics

Background:

  • Chronic lateral ankle instability affects 10-30% of individuals post-acute lateral ankle ligament injury.
  • Instability is categorized as functional or mechanical, with a focus on operative management for chronic cases.
  • Literature increasingly supports long-term studies on various operative repair methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review chronic lateral ankle ligament instability from functional and anatomical perspectives.
  • To analyze indications, nonoperative and operative treatments, and biomechanical data.
  • To critically evaluate diverse surgical treatment options.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on chronic lateral ankle instability.
  • Discussion of functional, anatomical, and biomechanical aspects of treatment.

  • Analysis of surgical techniques and long-term outcomes.

    • Main Results:

    • Anatomical repair of the anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments with imbrication is recommended for most cases.
    • The Chrisman-Snook technique is advised for patients with hypermobility, long-standing instability, or arthritis.
    • Surgical management is emphasized for chronic instability.

    Conclusions:

    • Anatomical repair provides a recommended surgical approach for chronic lateral ankle instability.
    • Specific reconstructive techniques are indicated for complex patient profiles.
    • Evidence supports operative management for persistent ankle instability.
