Background: The surgical management of chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) has
evolved since the 1930s, but for the past 50 years, the modified Broström technique of …

Abstract Purpose of Review Lateral ankle ligament sprains are one of the most commonly
reported injuries in high-level athletes and the general population. Unfortunately, up to 40 …

Purpose To compare the clinical outcomes, rate of return to sports, postural control, and
muscle strength between the arthroscopic and open modified Broström procedure for …

Introduction Arthroscopic treatment of lateral ankle instability is a recent innovation. In 2014,
a prospective study was initiated by the French Society of Arthroscopy demonstrating the …

Background The interaction of functional and mechanical deficits in chronic ankle instability
remains a major issue in current research. After an index sprain, some patients develop …

Background: The first aim of this study was to evaluate the side-to-side difference of joint-
position sense, peroneal strength, postural control, and functional performance ability in …

Background: Functional ankle instability (FAI) is defined as the subjective sensation of
instability or “giving way” after an ankle sprain and occurs in approximately 40% of patients …

Background Hypermobility of the first tarsometatarsal joint plays an important role in hallux
valgus pathogenesis. The peroneus longus is recognized as a dynamic stabilizer of the first …

Purpose Because modified Broström procedure provides a restoration of mechanical
stability by reinforcing attenuated host tissue, poor quality of remnant ligamentous tissue is …

Background: Weakness of evertor strength is controversial in chronic ankle instability (CAI).
Ankle evertor muscles are attached to the toe joints as well as to the metatarsal bone …
