Arthroscopic Management of Posteromedial Ankle Impingement.

ABSTRACT: Posteromedial ankle impingement is a rare clinical entity. It usually follows an inversion injury, with compression of the posterior tibiotalar ligament between the medial malleolus and talus. This can be treated by posterior ankle endoscopy through the posteromedial and posterolateral portals. The flexor hallucis longus tendon can be examined for any tenosynovitis or tendinopathy. The posteromedial corner of the ankle joint is reached with the instruments staying on the lateral side of the flexor hallucis longus tendon. The inflamed synovium, scar tissue, and fibrillated cartilage are debrided.

Arthroscopic Decompression for Medial Ankle Impingement After Total Ankle Arthroplasty.

Project description:Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is gaining in popularity, with the main objective to restore a pain-free mobile and stable ankle and is hoped to solve the long-term problems associated with ankle arthrodesis. Residual pain is not uncommon after TAA, and most is located at the medial gutter with bony impingement as the frequent cause. In this Technical Note, the technical details of arthroscopic decompression for medial ankle impingement after total ankle arthroplasty is described. It has the advantage of earlier weightbearing, faster recovery and less risk of periprosthetic infection.

Cam Impingement of the Knee: Arthroscopic Correction of Posteromedial Tibiofemoral Incongruence.

Project description:One of the anatomic variations observable within the knee joint is a reduction in the posterior curvature of the femoral metaphysis proximal to the medial femoral condyle. This curvature is usually concave enough to fit the posterior horn of the medial meniscus (PHMM) during full knee flexion. A reduction in curvature may result in posteromedial tibiofemoral incongruence, a condition characterized by compression of the PHMM in full knee flexion, similar to cam incongruence in the hip joint. Clinical symptoms may occur in deep knee flexion, and progressive degeneration of the PHMM can be observed if this position is not prohibited. For patients in whom activity modification and conservative treatment have failed, surgery may be indicated. We describe arthroscopic treatment allowing for final intraoperative confirmation of the clinical indication for posteromedial tibiofemoral incongruence correction, as well as allowing for the least possible, yet sufficient, amount of correction.

Technique of Arthroscopic Treatment of Impingement After Total Ankle Arthroplasty.

Project description:Rates of medial and/or lateral gutter impingement after total ankle replacement are not insignificant. If impingement should occur, it typically arises an average of 17 months after total ankle replacement. Our patient underwent treatment for right ankle medial gutter bony impingement with arthroscopic debridement 5 years after her initial total ankle replacement. Standard anteromedial and anterolateral portals and a 30° 2.7-mm-diameter arthroscope were used. An aggressive soft-tissue and bony resection was performed using a combination of curettes, a 3.5-mm shaver, a 5.5-mm unsheathed burr, a drill, and a radiofrequency ablator. This case shows that arthroscopic treatment is an effective and potentially advantageous alternative to open treatment of impingement after total ankle replacement. In addition, symptoms of impingement often improve in a short amount of time after arthroscopic debridement of the medial and/or lateral gutter.

Arthroscopic Posteromedial Capsular Release.

Project description:Post-traumatic or postsurgical flexion contractures of the knee can significantly limit function and lead to gait abnormalities. In this setting, interventions to regain full extension may include bracing, physical therapy, and open or arthroscopic surgery. Open surgical approaches to restore full motion often demand extensive recovery and promote further adhesions and loss of motion, which has led to the advent of arthroscopic techniques to address these pathologies. We present a safe, effective, and reproducible arthroscopic technique for posteromedial capsular release to address knee flexion contractures.

Arthroscopic Treatment of Posterior Ankle Impingement Syndrome: Mid-Term Clinical Results and a Learning Curve.

Project description:PurposeTo report mid-term clinical results of posterior ankle arthroscopy in the treatment of posterior ankle impingement syndrome (PAIS) and to assess the learning curve and its influence on the results.MethodsThis was a retrospective evaluation of the clinical outcomes of posterior ankle arthroscopy and its learning curve in a series of patients with PAIS. Demographic and clinical data, surgical time, the American Orthopaedic Foot Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle/hindfoot scores, and time to resumption of sports were recorded.ResultsFifty-nine patients with 72 posterior ankle arthroscopies were evaluated at a mean follow-up period of 60 months (24-133 months). Causes of PAIS were an os trigonum (50), a large posterior talar process (14), and soft-tissue impingement (8). There were 29 male and 30 female patients. The average age was 21.8 years (12-74 years). The average preoperative AOFAS score improved significantly from 79.6 to 97.6 postoperatively (P < .0001). The average time taken to resume training was 5.3 weeks, and the time to return to a competitive condition was 13.4 weeks. The times to resumption of training were shorter in elite athletes than local competitive athletes. The learning curve of the posterior ankle arthroscopy was detected and determined by a logarithmic trendline and moving averages. An experience of 26 cases was required to be proficient in posterior arthroscopies. The postoperative AOFAS scores were not statistically different between the initial and the latest 10 series each.ConclusionsThe mid-term follow-up results of endoscopic treatment for the PAIS were good, with a high success rate in returning to sports activities. Although a learning curve effect was detected in our series of arthroscopic treatment for the PAIS due to os trigonum, a low volume of experience did not affect the results.Level of evidenceLevel IV, therapeutic case series.

Arthroscopic Focal Subspinal Decompression and Management of Pincer-Type Femoroacetabular Impingement.

Project description:Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome is a common hip pathology significantly affecting not only the intra- and extra-articular structures but also the biomechanical function of the joint. Cam and pincer bony lesions have been extensively studied. However, during recent years, other types of extra-articular impingement between the pelvic and femoral bone have been investigated. When a prominent or morphologically abnormal anterior-inferior iliac spine (AIIS) impinges repetitively on the femoral side during motion, the subspinal acetabular region becomes prominent and extends toward the intra-articular part of the joint. This results in restriction of the range of motion of the hip and pain, especially with flexion. Therefore, during hip arthroscopy, it is necessary to evaluate the subspinal region (triangular area located at 1:30 to 2:30 o'clock using the acetabular clock face system). For the correction of the acetabular bone pathology to be complete, the surgeon should focus both on the pincer and subspinal impingement lesions. This article describes our preferred technique to successfully address subspinal and pincer acetabular impingement during hip arthroscopy. The pearls and pitfalls of this technique are discussed.

Radiographic outcomes reporting after arthroscopic management of femoroaceabular impingement: a systematic review.

Project description:Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition increasingly being recognized as a cause of hip pain and disability. Hip arthroscopy is a common method used to treat this condition. The purpose of this review was to identify reported radiographic outcomes after arthroscopic surgery for FAI. Online databases (PubMed, EMBASE, and Medline) were screened for studies involving arthroscopic management of FAI. Full-text reviews of eligible studies were conducted. We identified 23 eligible studies involving 1348 patients from an initial screen of 1304 studies involved. There were 15 different radiographic parameters among the 23 studies. The most commonly reported radiographic outcomes included the alpha angle (69.6 %), center edge angle (34.7 %), and femoral offset ratio (17.4 %). This study highlights the significant variation in reported radiographic outcomes after arthroscopic FAI surgery.

Medial impingement after ankle replacement.

Project description:Ankle replacements appear to offer a good alternative to fusion for most arthritic conditions. Use of mobile bearings has significantly improved results of ankle replacement. Ankle replacements still have a significant minor-complication rate which does not seem to affect the long-term outcome. Medial impingement as a complication has been reported with popular designs. We reviewed the senior author's first five years of Buechel-Pappas ankle replacements looking at AOFAS scores, VAS scores, patient satisfaction, learning curve of the surgeon and complications. Eight patients out of a total of 34 reported symptoms of medial impingement at follow-up. Four patients underwent revision surgery for this. Ankle replacements have a significant proportion of minor complications, one of which is medial impingement. Whether this is due to implant design, residual arthritis in medial recess or soft-tissue pathology is uncertain but revision surgery may be required.

Arthroscopic Management of Dysplasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica (Trevor Disease) of the Ankle.

Project description:Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (Trevor disease) is a rare skeletal development disorder of childhood, characterized by irregular ossification centers, which may develop together or individually, leading to asymmetric epiphyseal cartilage overgrowth, affecting 1 side of the epiphyses or the epiphyses equivalents (the medial side being affected twice as often as the lateral), until skeletal maturity is reached. Trevor disease around the ankle is locally aggressive with a poor outcome, especially in tumors involving the articular surface. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of arthroscopic management of dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica (Trevor disease) of the ankle.
