전방 발목 충돌 증후군에서의 관절경적 치료.

Anterior ankle impingement is a frequent cause of chronic ankle pain and swelling. A pathological examination has been reclassified as “anterior ankle impingement syndrome.” Soft tissue impingement is prevalent in the anterolateral compartment of the ankle, while a bony spur often causes impingement in the anteromedial compartment. Although open surgery has yielded good outcomes historically, it is associated with several complications. On the other hand, the development of ankle arthroscopy has reduced these risks significantly and has been used effectively in numerous studies to treat impingements caused by anterior bony spurs or soft tissue. An accurate preoperative clinical diagnosis and diagnostic imaging are critical for surgical planning, particularly for identifying bony spurs in front of the ankle. Narrowing joint space, large bone fragments, and other factors can influence the surgical outcomes. Computed tomography scans precisely evaluate the bony spur size, while magnetic resonance imaging scans help assess soft tissue lesions. Therefore, understanding diagnosis and treatment is important, and an accurate understanding of patient prognostic factors, such as osteoarthritis and degenerative osteoarthritis, eventually affects patient outcomes. This paper discusses the clinical symptoms, causes, diagnosis, surgical method, and postoperative rehabilitation of anteromedial and anterolateral ankle impingement syndrome and reports the results of arthroscopic surgery.
