Abstract
Objective To assess the effectiveness of lateral ligament reconstruction with autogenous partial peroneus longus tendon for chronic lateral ankle instability. Methods Between September 2014 and November 2018, 32 patients (32 sides) with chronic lateral ankle instability were treated with lateral ankle ligament reconstruction by using autogenous anterior half of the peroneus longus tendon. There were 25 males and 7 females, with an average age of 28.5 years (range, 20-51 years). The disease duration was 6-41 months (mean, 8.9 months). The preoperative Karlsson-Peterson ankle score was 53.7±9.7. The talar tilt angle was (14.9±3.7)°, and the anterior talar translation was (8.2±2.8) mm. Six patients combined with osteochondral lesion of talus and 4 patients combined with bony impingement. Results All incisions healed by first intention postoperatively. All patients were followed up 12-53 months (mean, 22.7 months). At last follow-up, the Karlsson-Peterson ankle score was 85.2±9.6; the talar tilt angle was (4.3±1.4)°; the anterior talar translation was (3.5±1.1) mm. There were significant differences in all indexes between pre- and post-operation ( P<0.05). Seventeen patients were very satisfied with the results, 10 patients were satisfied, 4 patients were normal, and 1 patient was unsatisfied. After operation, the ankle sprain occurred in 7 cases, the tenderness around the compression screws at calcaneus in 5 cases, the anterolateral pain of ankle joint over 6 months in 4 cases. No patient had discomfort around the reciepient sites. At last follow-up, the ultrasonography examination showed that there was no significant difference in the density and diameter between bilateral peroneus longus tendons in 12 cases. Conclusion For chronic lateral ankle instability, the lateral ankle ligament reconstruction with the autogenous partial peroneus longus tendon is a safe and effective surgical option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, the use of the anterior half of the peroneus longus tendon (AHPLT) as an autograft source for ligament reconstruction has gained popularity. However, no reports are available regarding tendon regeneration after harvesting of the AHPLT. HYPOTHESIS When half of the tendon is preserved during tendon harvesting, the quality of the regenerated tendon is better than that of the regenerated tendon after full-thickness harvesting. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4; controlled laboratory study. METHODS A total of 21 patients who underwent AHPLT harvesting for lower extremity ligament reconstruction participated in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study to evaluate tendon regeneration 1 year after the harvesting. An in vivo animal study was performed to compare the quality of the regenerated tendon after partial-thickness and full-thickness tendon harvesting. A total of 30 adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were allocated to 2 groups-15 rats underwent partial-thickness Achilles tendon harvesting (partial-thickness harvesting [PTH] group), and 15 rats underwent full-thickness Achilles tendon harvesting (full-thickness harvesting [FTH] group). The quality of the regenerated tendons was compared 180 days after tendon harvesting. RESULTS All 21 patients showed regeneration of the peroneus longus tendon (PLT) (homogeneously dark on both T1- and T2-weighted sequences). The cross-sectional area of the regenerated tendon divided by that of the preoperative tendon was 92.6% and 84.5% at 4 cm and 9 cm proximal to the tip of the distal fibula, respectively. In the animal study, the mean histologic score was better for the PTH group compared with the FTH group (9.17 ± 1.35 vs 14.72 ± 0.74; P < .001). The ultimate strength and the stiffness of the regenerated Achilles tendon were significantly higher for the PTH group compared with the FTH group (35.5 ± 8.3 vs 22.4 ± 8.3 N, P = .004; and 31.6 ± 7.7 vs 23.5 ± 4.8 N/mm, P = .016). CONCLUSION The PLT was found to regenerate after partial-thickness harvesting on MRI. In the animal study, the quality of the regenerated tendon when half of the tendon was preserved during tendon harvesting was better than that after full-thickness tendon harvesting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate if there is any evidence in favour of autograft or allograft use for anatomic reconstruction of lateral ankle ligaments in patients with symptomatic chronic ankle instability. METHODS A literature search was performed in PubMed MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, EMBASE and Google Scholar databases, over the years 1994-2017, to identify the studies presenting clinical results of anatomic lateral ankle ligaments reconstruction using various combinations of the keywords "lateral ankle ligaments reconstruction", "anatomic reconstruction", "chronic ankle instability", "allograft", "autograft". The surgical procedure was considered anatomic if consistent with the description of lateral ankle ligaments made by Burks and Morgan in 1994. RESULTS Among the 89 papers matching the search terms, only 12 could be included in which 357 anatomic lateral ankle ligaments reconstructions were performed. One was a comparative case series (level of evidence III - LOE III) while other papers were retrospective case series (LOE IV), the mean Modified Coleman Methodology Score (MCMS) was fair: 56.7 (SD±5.2). Due to the low level of evidence of the available literature only a qualitative analysis was performed. The limited evidence from the studies analysed suggests that there is no difference in graft survivorship, graft-dependent variables, patient's satisfaction, clinical outcome measures and radiographic results between allograft and autograft. CONCLUSIONS Given the low number of studies, their poor methodology score and their low level of evidence it is not possible to determine if allograft is better or safer than autograft. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, review paper of level III and level IV studies.

Abstract
Lateral ankle instability is a debilitating condition that is often unresponsive to conservative therapy. Many techniques for operative repair have been proposed, most commonly performed as the Broström or modified Broström procedure. In patients with failed primary repair, hereditary collagen disorders, strenuous work activity, obesity, or ligamentous laxity, the Broström repair is less likely to be successful, and anatomic or nonanatomic reconstruction should be considered. The purpose of this study was to compare the functional outcomes and patient satisfaction between anatomic and nonanatomic reconstruction of the lateral ankle ligament complex for lateral ankle instability using a retrospective cohort study. We evaluated 64 ankles in 62 patients who underwent either a split peroneus brevis tendon (n = 36) or semitendinosus allograft tendon reconstruction (n = 28) for lateral ankle instability performed by the same surgeon. Postoperative American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (p = .943) and patient satisfaction (p = .279) found no significant difference between either technique. Our results suggest that both split peroneus brevis and semitendinosus allograft may be viable alternatives for lateral ankle instability when primary ligamentous repair is not attainable.

Abstract
Biomechanical studies have indicated that the conventional nonanatomic reconstruction techniques for lateral ankle sprain (LAS) tend to restrict subtalar joint motion compared to intact ankle joints. Excessive restriction in subtalar motion may lead to chronic pain, functional difficulties, and development of osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, various anatomic surgical techniques to reconstruct both the anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments (CaFL) have been introduced. In this study, ankle joint stability was evaluated using multibody computational ankle joint model to assess two new anatomic reconstruction and three popular nonanatomic reconstruction techniques. An LAS injury, three popular nonanatomic reconstruction models (Watson-Jones, Evans, and Chrisman–Snook) and two common types of anatomic reconstruction models were developed based on the intact ankle model. The stability of ankle in both talocrural and subtalar joint were evaluated under anterior drawer test (150 N anterior force), inversion test (3 N·m inversion moment), internal rotational test (3 N·m internal rotation moment), and the combined loading test (9 N·m inversion and internal moment as well as 1800 N compressive force). Our overall results show that the two anatomic reconstruction techniques were superior to the nonanatomic reconstruction techniques in stabilizing both talocrural and subtalar joints. Restricted subtalar joint motion, which is mainly observed in Watson-Jones and Chrisman–Snook techniques, was not shown in the anatomical reconstructions. Evans technique was beneficial for subtalar joint as it does not restrict subtalar motion, though Evans technique was insufficient for restoring talocrural joint inversion. The anatomical reconstruction techniques best recovered ankle stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The anterior half of the peroneus longus tendon (AHPLT) has been reported to be an effective autograft for ligament reconstruction with respect to strength and safety. However, there is little information regarding donor site morbidity after harvesting the AHPLT. Furthermore, to the best of our knowledge, there has not been a study on the isokinetic evaluation of ankle plantar flexion and eversion after AHPLT harvesting. PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical and radiographic results after lateral ankle ligament reconstruction using the AHPLT. We further investigated whether harvesting the AHPLT for lateral ankle ligament reconstruction decreases the strength of ankle plantar flexion and eversion. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Thirty consecutive patients (31 cases) were treated by anatomic lateral ligament reconstruction using the AHPLT. For the clinical assessment, visual analog scale (VAS), American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), and Karlsson-Peterson scores were evaluated preoperatively and at the last follow-up. For the radiographic assessment, talar tilt angle and anterior talar displacement were measured preoperatively and at the last follow-up. The peak isokinetic torques for ankle plantar flexion at angular velocities of 30 and 120 deg/s and eversion at angular velocities of 30 and 60 deg/s were measured at a minimum of 1 year after surgery. RESULTS The mean VAS score improved significantly from 6.4 ± 1.7 preoperatively to 1.6 ± 1.5 at the last follow-up ( P < .001). The mean respective AOFAS and Karlsson-Peterson scores improved significantly from 57.2 ± 12.8 and 66.9 ± 13.6 preoperatively to 89.0 ± 10.0 and 93.3 ± 5.7 at the last follow-up ( P < .001). The mean talar tilt angle improved significantly from 15.3° ± 6.2° preoperatively to 3.4° ± 3.0° at the last follow-up ( P < .001), and the mean anterior talar displacement improved significantly from 10.2 ± 3.3 mm preoperatively to 6.3 ± 1.9 mm at the last follow-up ( P < .001). No significant differences were observed between the uninvolved and involved legs in the mean peak torque for plantar flexion at angular speeds of 30 deg/s ( P = .517) and 120 deg/s ( P = .347) or for eversion at angular speeds of 30 deg/s ( P = .913) and 60 deg/s ( P = .983). CONCLUSION Anatomic lateral ligament reconstruction using the AHPLT showed good clinical and radiographic results without a significant decrease in the peroneus longus strength. Lateral ligament reconstruction using the AHPLT may be a good surgical option for the treatment of chronic ankle instability.

Abstract
Chronic lateral ankle instability is a common condition. Split peroneal tendon lateral ankle stabilization, a modification of the Chrisman-Snook procedure, is biomechanically stable and often used for severe and/or recurrent chronic lateral ankle instability. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this technique. Specifically, the midterm recurrence of instability and postoperative complications, such as stiffness, neurologic pain, and wound healing complications, were evaluated. We evaluated 30 consecutive procedures with a minimal follow-up period of 1 year. The mean follow-up period was 25 ± 13 (median 19, range 13 to 62) months. Five patients (17%) developed recurrent ankle instability, of whom 4 underwent revision surgery. One superficial infection and two wound disruptions developed. Two patients experienced stiffness and eight (27%) surgically induced neurologic complaints, such as sural neuritis. Finally, 2 patients developed complex regional pain syndrome.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the results of a novel surgical technique for the treatment of chronic lateral ankle instability with attenuated or deficient ligamentous tissue that the modified Broström procedure could not be performed. A lateral ankle ligament reconstruction using the anterior half of the peroneus longus tendon has been performed. METHODS Thirty-four consecutive patients treated with lateral ankle ligament reconstruction using anterior half of the peroneus longus tendon were enrolled. Median age at surgery was 24 years (range 19-46 years). The clinical and radiologic outcomes were evaluated preoperatively and at a median of 21 months (range 12-51 months) follow-up. RESULTS The Karlsson-Peterson ankle score significantly improved from 58.2 ± 10.9 points preoperatively to 83.9 ± 7.0 points at the last follow-up. Mechanical stability was achieved. The mean talar tilt angle significantly improved from 15.7° ± 3.5° preoperatively to 4.6° ± 1.7° at the last follow-up, and the mean anterior talar translation significantly improved from 7.3 ± 2.6 mm preoperatively to 4.1 ± 1.7 mm at the last follow-up. Fifteen patients (52%) were very satisfied with the results, nine patients (31%) were satisfied, four patients (14%) were fair, and one patient (3%) was dissatisfied with the results. CONCLUSIONS Lateral ankle ligament reconstruction using the anterior half of the peroneus longus tendon can be a surgical option for chronic lateral ankle instability with attenuated or deficient ligaments.
