Arthroscopic treatment of talar body fractures.

ABSTRACT: Talar fractures can be severe injuries with complications leading to functional disability. Open reduction-internal fixation remains the treatment of choice for displaced talar fractures. Arthroscopic evaluation of the fracture and articular surfaces can play an important role in the treatment of these fractures. Arthroscopic reduction-internal fixation (ARIF) is increasingly used for certain intra-articular fracture types through the body. The minimally invasive nature of ARIF and high accuracy are enviable attributes of an evolving technique. This technical note describes arthroscopic evaluation of 2 intra-articular talar head fractures, using posterior portals, with ARIF performed in 1 case and excision of the fracture fragments in the other case.

Arthroscopic Curettage and Bone Grafting of Bone Cysts of the Talar Body.

Project description:Talar bone cysts can develop as a result of osteochondral lesions of the talus. This can be a source of deep ankle pain. Open debridement and bone grafting of the bone cysts requires extensive soft tissue dissection and malleolar osteotomy. Removal of normal cartilage of the talus is frequently required to approach the bone cysts. Alternatively, the cysts can be grafted arthroscopically with minimal disruption of the normal cartilage surface. The key to success is careful preoperative planning with a computed tomogram of the ankle. Bone cyst of the posterior half of the talar body can be grafted via posterior ankle endoscopy. Bone cyst of the anterior half of the talar body can be debrided and grafted via anterior talar osseous portals. The purpose of this technical note is to describe a minimally invasive approach of curettage and bone grafting of the talar bone cysts with preservation of the articular surfaces.

All-Arthroscopic Treatment of Glenoid Rim Fractures.

Project description:We describe an arthroscopic technique for the management of glenoid rim fractures. It is performed with the patient placed in lateral decubitus position. The fracture is assessed through the anterosuperior portal, and the fragment is mobilized. A special glenoid guide is used from the posterior portal to reduce the fragment and to create 2 tunnels through the glenoid and through the glenoid rim fragment. Two pairs of round buttons are connected with high-strength sutures and are tightened posteriorly. This allows strong fixation of the fractured fragment and avoids all the anterior structures since all the instruments are inserted posteriorly.

Arthroscopic intralesional curettage for large benign talar dome cysts.

Project description:IntroductionSurgical management of large talar dome cysts is challenging due to increased morbidity by associated cartilage damage and malleolar osteotomy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcome of endoscopic curettage and bone graft for large talar dome cysts.MethodsThis is a retrospective analysis of data for eight patients (eight feet) who were treated by arthroscopic curettage and grafting for large talar dome cysts. Seven cases were treated by posterior ankle arthroscopy as the lesion was located posteriorly while one case was treated by anterior ankle arthroscopy as the lesion was breached anteriorly.ResultsThe final diagnosis, was; large osteochondral lesion of talus (two cases), aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) (two case), intra-osseous ganglion (two cases), Chronic infection in talus (one case) and angiomatous lesion of the talus (one case). The mean follow up period was 18.3 (±3.06 SD) months (range 16-25 months). The median preoperative AOFAS score was 74.5 (±5.34 SD) points. The mean postoperative AOFAS score at one year follow up was 94.6 (±2.97 SD) points. None of the patient had recurrence of the lesion during follow up. Return to normal daily activity was achieved at 11.25 (±2.37 SD) weeks.DiscussionIn this short case series study, large talar dome bony cysts of different pathologies including aneurysmal bone cysts could be treated effectively by endoscopic curettage and bone grafting with no recurrence no complications during the follow-up period.

Arthroscopic Assisted Treatment of Thumb Metacarpal Base Articular Fractures.

Project description:Fracture of the base of the thumb metacarpal (M1) is a common finding in hand trauma. Closed reduction and K-wire fixation and open reduction-internal fixation are traditional treatments of choice. The arthroscopic assisted technique has been introduced to improve intra-articular fragment reduction and to preserve fragment vascularization and capsular and ligamentous integrity along with joint stability. Indications for arthroscopic assistance are all types of intra-articular fractures or pending malunions involving the base of M1 and/or the trapezium. The aim of this article is to describe the surgical technique used in managing articular fractures of the base of M1, with arthroscopic assistance. Our experience with this technique confirms the advantages of a minimally invasive method that provides articular reduction under direct vision, with limited soft-tissue damage, and allows early rehabilitation (from day 1 after surgery). This technique is extremely valuable for high-demand patients such as manual workers or athletes. The relative disadvantage of the technique is its technical difficulty, which requires experience with small-joint arthroscopy.

Arthroscopic treatment of comminuted distal clavicle fractures (latarjet fractures) using 2 double-button devices.

Project description:Complex distal clavicle fractures associated with a rupture of the coracoclavicular ligaments (Latarjet fractures) can result in delayed union or nonunion. There is no standard treatment for a clavicle fracture. This report introduces an arthroscopic technique for treating distal clavicle fractures associated with ruptured coracoclavicular ligament using 2 double-button devices. By use of posterior and anterior standard arthroscopic portals, the base of the coracoid process is exposed through the rotator interval. A 4-mm hole is drilled through the clavicle and the coracoid process with a specific ancillary drill guide. The first button is pushed through both holes down the coracoid process. The device is tightened, and the second button is fixed on top of the clavicle, allowing reduction and fixation of the proximal part of the fracture. Then, the undersurface of the lateral clavicle is dissected through standard posterior and lateral subacromial approaches. The inferior clavicle fragment is reduced and fixed to the clavicle body by a double button fixed down and at the top of the clavicle. With this technique, the arthroscopic treatment of distal clavicle fracture has been extended to comminuted fractures.

Arthroscopic Debridement of Pediatric Accessory Anterolateral Talar Facet Causing Impingement.

Project description:Symptomatic subfibular and/or lateral talocalcaneal impingement in pediatric patients may result from an accessory anterolateral talar facet (AALTF). This impingement may cause pain and disability and may limit athletic performance in high-level athletes. We report the case of a 12-year-old female competitive gymnast who had refractory, lateral-sided right ankle pain for 4 months and underwent right ankle arthroscopic resection of the AALTF causing impingement. Standard medial and anterolateral portals with the addition of an accessory anterolateral-distal portal were used in conjunction with a 30° 2.7-mm-diameter arthroscope. The AALTF was resected with a combination of a shaver and a motorized rasp. Intraoperative fluoroscopy was used to verify successful debridement of the bony facet. This case illustrates that arthroscopic debridement is a technique to treat subfibular and/or talocalcaneal impingement associated with an AALTF.

Arthroscopic treatment of medial femoral condylar coronal fractures and nonunions.

Project description:Nonunion of medial femoral condylar coronal fractures are uncommon. In neglected Hoffa fractures despite nonunion, there is a risk of missing accompanying ligamentous and intra-articular injuries. Neither preoperative clinical examination nor magnetic resonance imaging showed these injuries before arthroscopy. Arthroscopy before internal fixation gives additional information and changes the surgical protocol for these fractures and nonunions.

Arthroscopic Debridement and Microfracture of Osteochondral Lesion of the Talar Head.

Project description:Osteochondral lesions of the talar head can be classified into 4 types according to their location. A type 1 lesion is located at the anterior part of the talar head. Surgical debridement and microfracture are indicated for symptomatic type 1 lesions if conservative treatment fails to relieve the pain. The purpose of this technical note was to describe the details of arthroscopic debridement and microfracture of the symptomatic type 1 osteochondral lesion of the talar head and the kissing lesion at the navicular bone. The procedure is performed through the standard portals of talonavicular arthroscopy and has the advantages of minimally invasive surgery of better cosmetic results and less surgical trauma.
