Summary

This 20-year cohort study foolows patients after ankle ligament reconstruction surgery to evaluate re-rupture rates, long term functional outcomes, return to sport rates ans complications? The goal is to provide insights into the procedure's durability and effectiveness to enhance patient care.

Conditions

  • Ankle (Ligaments); Instability (Old Injury)
  • Ankle Ligament Rupture
  • Ankle Instability
  • Syndesmotic Injury

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ligament reconstruction

Retensioning involves restoring the tension in a ligament or soft tissue that has become lax, often due to injury or joint instability. This technique is typically used for ligaments that do not require complete reconstruction but have lost their functional tension. Ligament reconstruction is a surgical procedure to replace or repair a damaged ligament, often using grafts (autografts or allografts). It aims to restore joint stability and function, particularly in cases of significant ligament damage or rupture. Syndesmosis surgery involves repairing or reconstructing the fibrous joint between two bones (e.g., the tibia and fibula). It may involve screw fixation, suture-button devices, or grafts to restore the alignment and stability of the syndesmosis.
