Abstract

Arthroscopic ligament repair has gained popularity as a minimally invasive alternative for addressing ankle instability, due to its minimally invasive nature, which offers significant advantages over traditional open procedures. These benefits include smaller incisions, reduced soft tissue dissection, and the ability to concurrently manage intra-articular pathology, contributing to its popularity among surgeons and patients alike. Despite these advantages, the procedure presents a range of technical challenges and potential complications that can impact patient outcomes. Persistent instability, improper tensioning, and issues related to suture anchors are some of the primary concerns. Understanding these complexities and employing targeted strategies to mitigate them is essential for improving patient outcomes. Continued research and refinement of surgical techniques will play a key role in enhancing the safety and efficacy of this procedure.

期刊介绍： Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT) aims to provide its readers with the latest clinical and basic research, and informed opinions that shape today''s orthopedic practice, thereby providing an opportunity to practice evidence-based medicine. With contributions from leading clinicians and researchers around the world, we aim to be the premier journal providing an international perspective advancing knowledge of the musculoskeletal system. JCOT publishes content of value to both general orthopedic practitioners and specialists on all aspects of musculoskeletal research, diagnoses, and treatment. We accept following types of articles: • Original articles focusing on current clinical issues. • Review articles with learning value for professionals as well as students. • Research articles providing the latest in basic biological or engineering research on musculoskeletal diseases. • Regular columns by experts discussing issues affecting the field of orthopedics. • "Symposia" devoted to a single topic offering the general reader an overview of a field, but providing the specialist current in-depth information. • Video of any orthopedic surgery which is innovative and adds to present concepts. • Articles emphasizing or demonstrating a new clinical sign in the art of patient examination is also considered for publication. Contributions from anywhere in the world are welcome and considered on their merits.
