Arthroscopic Stabilization of Unstable Os Subfibulare

Arthroscopic Stabilization of Unstable Os Subfibulare

Os subfibulare is an ossicle at the tip of the lateral malleolus. The ossicle is sometimes symptomatic and presents with local pain or lateral ankle instability. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of arthroscopic stabilization of the os subfibulare. It is indicated for sym...

The ossicle is sometimes symptomatic and presents with local pain or lateral ankle instability. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of arthroscopic stabilization of the os subfibulare. It is indicated for symptomatic mechanical lateral ankle instability resulting from an unstable os subfibulare. The technique has the advantages of minimally invasive surgery, evaluation and treatment of concomitant ankle pathology, and preservation of integrity of the anterior talofibular ligament.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212628719300969
