Background:
This study performed a randomized trial data meta-analysis to assess The Modified Brostrom-Gould (MBG) for proven chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI).
Methods:
All published randomized clinical trials comparing MBG and other operations were found by searching the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and PubMed databases. The Review Manager 5.4 software was used to compare the two groups regarding postoperative functional score, ankle stability, and complications. Risk Ratio (RR) and Mean Differences (MD) were used in meta-analyses.
Results:
8 experiments are suitable for it, 426 patients were enrolled, and 222 patients underwent other operations surgery. Among the six outcome indicators, in terms of FAOS scores, the other operations group has an advantage, 6.53 points higher than MBG; others show no significant differences.
Conclusions:
Based on this meta-analysis, the authors believe that other surgical groups can achieve better outcomes than MBG in some aspects of CLAI treatment.
