The Ankle‐GO™ score predicts return to sport after surgically treated unstable syndesmotic injuries

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Purpose Objective return to sport (RTS) criteria following syndesmotic stabilization are limited. The purpose of this study was to explore the discriminative and predictive ability of the Ankle‐GO™ score for RTS status following syndesmotic stabilization. Methods At 3 and 6 months postoperatively, 50 patients were assessed using the Ankle‐GOTM

Deltoid Ligament Augmentation Replacing Syndesmotic Fixation for the Treatment of Ankle Fracture With Syndesmotic Instability and Deltoid Ligament Rupture: A Cadaveric Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 167-174, January 2026.
A biomechanical study verifying that deltoid ligament augmentation can be an alternative to syndesmotic fixation for stabilizing both the medial malleolar and the syndesmosis in selective patients with Weber C ankle injuries. ABSTRACT Objectives Ankle fracture with both deltoid ligament (DL) rupture and syndesmotic diastasis is often treated by ...

Lateral Plate Versus Isolated Lag Screw Fixation of Unstable Distal Fibula Fractures: A Systematic Review

Advances in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Lateral plate fixation, the current standard for fixation of unstable distal fibular fractures, can compromise the minimal soft tissue envelope resulting in poorer postoperative outcomes. Isolated lag screw fixation represents a novel method of distal fibula fixation. Methods Two independent reviewers conducted a literature search of PubMed,

Achilles Allograft Reconstruction for Ankle Multiligament Injuries in a Patient Presenting With Rotational Ankle Instability: A Surgical Technique

Case Reports in Surgery, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The ankle comprises two main ligamentous complexes: the medial and lateral complex. In cases of chronic ankle instability following a sprain involving both complexes, rotational ankle instability can develop. We introduce a 25‐year‐old male with rotational ankle instability who reported having 20 episodes of “giving away” over the 6 months following an

Ultrafast Return to Sport in International Feminine Football Following Arthroscopic Anatomic Lateral Ankle Ligament Reconstruction Using Gracilis Autograft: A Case Report

Case Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lateral ankle instability is a common condition in elite football, but returning to play following arthroscopic anatomic ligament reconstruction (AALR) typically requires 4–6 months. We report the case of a 24‐year‐old professional female football player who achieved a full return to elite competition and national team duties within 12 weeks following ...
