This study introduces a modified arthroscopic Brostrom procedure for lateral ankle instability, using bone tunnels instead of suture anchors to potentially reduce complications associated with the standard surgical repair.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • The modified Brostrom procedure is the standard surgical treatment for chronic lateral ankle instability.
  • Arthroscopic Brostrom procedures using suture anchors can address intra-articular issues but have higher complication rates.
  • Suture anchor use is frequently linked to complications in arthroscopic ankle stabilization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a modified arthroscopic Brostrom procedure.
  • To evaluate an alternative fixation method using bone tunnels instead of suture anchors.
  • To potentially decrease complication rates in arthroscopic lateral ankle ligament repair.

Main Methods:

  • A modified arthroscopic Brostrom procedure was performed.
  • Anterolateral ankle capsule was anchored to the lateral malleolus.

  • Small bone tunnels were utilized for fixation, replacing suture anchors.

    • Main Results:

    • The modified technique allows for anatomic repair of lateral ankle ligaments.
    • Intra-articular lesions can be managed arthroscopically.
    • This method avoids the use of suture anchors, aiming to reduce associated complications.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified arthroscopic Brostrom procedure offers a viable alternative for lateral ankle instability.
    • Anchoring the capsule via bone tunnels may mitigate complications seen with suture anchors.
    • This technique provides anatomic repair and addresses intra-articular pathology arthroscopically.
