Arthroscopy of the ankle joint
Archives of Orthopaedic and Traumatic Surgery, 1986The technique and results of 11 arthroscopies of the ankle joint are presented. The main indications were post-traumatic pain and osteochondritis dissecans of the talus. As a result of arthroscopy, a radionegative loose body was found, exploratory arthrotomy was avoided in one case, incisions and operative procedures were changed, and loose bodies were

Tendinopathies of the ankle joint
Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine, 1997Tendons around the ankle joint may undergo overuse pathology. The anatomy of the ankle must be thoroughly studied in order to understand the causes of the overuse pathology, and their clinical presentation. Changes in tendon functioning may arise following biomechanical alterations of the foot and ankle.

Ultrasound of the ankle joint can detect intraarticular volume increases in the presence of effusion or synovialitis, as well as periarticular soft tissue changes. The most frequent indications for ultrasound examination of this joint are injuries and disorders of the Achilles tendon.

Usually the foot is anchored to the ground when a force pushes the body forward, such as stumbling over an object or fall from a height. This causes external rotation, abduction, and adduction.

Pressure distribution at the ankle joint
Journal of Biomechanics, 1990Biomechanical factors such as trauma or overweight are discussed in relation to the aetiology of osteochondral lesions. As a consequence of the possible influence of these factors on joint loading patterns the pressure distribution on the load-bearing ankle joint has been investigated in a cadaveric biostatic model.

Arthrodesis of the ankle joint
The American Journal of Surgery, 1949Abstract 1. 1. Bony fusion was obtained in nine of the ten patients including those with tuberculosis and osteomyelitis. One operation for correction of paralytic deformity resulted in failure of fusion after six months' immobilization. However, the functional result is satisfactory as the corrected position is being maintained. 2.

According to Fick, the three-dimensional patterns of foot motion are best characterized as jawlike movement. Anatomically and biomechanically, this process represents conjoined, synchronous motion within the three mobile segments of the ankle-foot unit: the upper ankle joint, the posterior lower ankle joint and the anterior lower ankle joint.

BACKGROUND Ankle arthrodesis traditionally has been regarded as the treatment of choice for many patients with end-stage ankle arthritis. However, a major reported risk of ankle arthrodesis is adjacent-joint degeneration.

Risk factors for periprosthetic ankle joint infection: a case-control study.
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2012BACKGROUND Periprosthetic ankle joint infection is a feared complication of total ankle arthroplasty because the implant fails in the majority of cases. However, risk factors for developing these infections are unknown.
