End-stage ankle osteoarthritis: exploring the precedent causes and time course of joint degeneration

Journal of the Foot & Ankle
Introduction: End-stage ankle osteoarthritis (OA) is primarily post-traumatic, following injuries such as fractures, dislocations, and sprains. However, the timeline between initial injury and end-stage OA requiring surgical intervention remains poorly ...

Function of ankle ligaments for subtalar and talocrural joint stability during an inversion movement – an in vitro study

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2019
Background The lateral ankle ligament complex consisting of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL), the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) and the posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL) is known to provide stability against ankle joint inversion.
