    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Diagnostic Imaging
    • Arthroscopy

    Background:

    • Arthroscopic assessment is a valuable tool for diagnosing intra-articular ankle pathologies.
    • Standard arthroscopic portals include anteromedial and anterolateral approaches.
    • Establishing precise indications for ankle arthroscopy is ongoing.

    Observation:

    • The study presents two cases of ankle arthroscopy.
    • Case 1 involved a patient with ankle loose bodies.
    • Case 2 involved a patient with suspected osteochondral fracture.

    Findings:

    • Arthroscopy successfully localized loose bodies and assessed articular surface status in the first patient.
    • Arthroscopic evaluation revealed an intact articular surface in the second patient, leading to successful non-surgical treatment.

  • The diagnostic utility of ankle arthroscopy was demonstrated in these cases.
  • Implications:

    • Ankle arthroscopy can accurately diagnose intra-articular conditions like loose bodies and osteochondral fractures.
    • Arthroscopic findings can guide surgical versus non-surgical treatment strategies.
    • The role of ankle arthroscopy is likely less extensive than knee arthroscopy but remains a valuable diagnostic aid.
