Many surgical procedures have been described for the treatment of chronic lateral instability of the ankle. Tenodesis procedures using peroneus brevis tendon is traditionally common among them. Recently, the modified Brostrom anatomic procedure, that is, tightening the stretched out lateral ligaments to restore their norma] anatomy without the use of supplemental tissues and then suturing the lateral portion of the extensor retinaculum to the distal fibula over the ligament repair. has been gaining in popularity. We have reviewed 6 of 10 consecutive cases at an average of 17 months after modified Brostrom procedure. An excellent or good result was achieved in 5 cases, all of which had improved mechanical stability as measured radiographically. One case that had an unsatisfactory result was in patient who had had a previous Evans' operation. So, we believed that the modified Brostrom procedure is an excellent treating method for chronic lateral instability of the ankle.

Purpose: We assessed the clinical results of modified Brostrom procedure as a revision method after failure of a primary reconstruction. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of seven patients treated with Modified Brostrom procedure after failed lateral ankle ligament reconstruction between 1996 and 2002. Instability symptom developed average 4.7 month after the initial reconstruction surgery at other clinics. All patients had significant functional impairment before surgery and not responded to conservative protocols. Modified Brostrom procedure was applied to all patients. Results: The average follow up was 51 months (18 to 84). Seven of eight patients had clinical stability following revision reconstruction, six patients (75%) returned to their previous functional level. American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle-hindfoot scores averaged 87.5. There is no difference in active or passive range of motion of plantar flexion or dorsiflexion when compared to the contralateral ankle. However, three patients were noted to have lost some degree of inversion when compated to contralateral ankle. Two patients had osteochondral lesion and multiple spurs and had pain around the ankle that prevented their full recovery. One patient complained of persistent pain which was considered complex regional pain syndrome. Conclusion: Though the outcome of the Modified Brostrom procedure as a method of revision surgery was less satisfactory compared to the results of primary ankle reconstruction, it would be an appropriate option when concomitant abnormalities were not accompanying.

Purpose: The purpose of our study was to perform a comparison of the outcomes of the modified Brostrom procedure using only a suture anchor compared with using a suture anchor with a pushlock anchor. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study of chronic lateral ankle instability that underwent a modified Brostrom procedure using a bioabsorbable suture anchor & a pushlock anchor, performed by a single surgeon. A total of 88 patients were enrolled in the study. The function of the patient's ankles were scored using the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), visual analogue scale (VAS) both preoperatively and postoperatively. Results: The difference in the overall means between the group A and group B was not statistically significant. But, the patient's satisfaction was better in the group B, and there were more complications in the group A. Conclusion: The technique presented here uses the modified Brostrom procedure with pushlock anchors to prevent the problems associated with subcutaneous knot irritation.

목적: 만성 발목관절 외측 불안정성 환자에 대한 변형 Brostrom 술식에서 단일 봉합나사와 이중 봉합나사를 이용한 기법간의 임상 결과를 후향적으로 비교하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 본원에서 봉합나사를 이용한 변형 Brostrom 술식을 시행받은 환자들 중 최소 1년 이상 추시가 가능하였던 37례를 대상으로 하였다. 모든 수술은 동일한 술자에 의해 이루어졌으며 단일 봉합나사를 이용한 경우가 17예, 이중 봉합나사를 이용한 경우가 20예 였다. 임상적 결과의 평가는 Karlsson 점수 및 Sefton의 평가법을 이용하였고, 발목관절의 기계적인 안정성에 대한 방사선학적 평가로 Telos 기기를 이용한 전방 전위 및 내반 스트레스 검사가 이용되었다. 결과: Karlsson 점수는 단일 봉합나사군이 술 전 평균 45.2점에서 술 후 89.4점으로, 이중 봉합나사군이 술 전 평균 46.4점에서 90.5점으로 각각 호전되었다. Sefton 평가법상 단일 봉합나사군은 우수가 7예, 양호가 8예, 보통이 2예 였고, 이중 봉합나사군은 우수 8예, 양호 10예, 보통 2예로 나타나 각각 15례(88.2%), 18례(90%)에서 만족스러운 결과를 보였다. 스트레스 방사선검사 상 거골 경사각과 거골 전방전위는 단일 봉합나사군이 술 전 평균 13.6도, 8.6 mm에서 술 후 최종 추시시 5.4도, 4.1 mm로, 이중 봉합나사군이 술 전 평균 14.1도, 8.4 mm에서 술 후 3.9도, 4 mm로 각각 호전되었으며 두 기법간에 술 후 거골 경사각의 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 결론: 만성 발목관절 외측 불안정성에 대한 변형 Brostrom 술식에서 단일 봉합나사와 이중 봉합나사를 이용한 기법간에 술 후 임상 결과의 유의한 차이는 없었으나, 발목관절의 기계적인 안정성은 이중 봉합나사군에서 더 우수하였다. 단일 봉합나사와 이중 봉합나사를 이용한 변형 Brostrom 술식 모두 효과적인 치료 방법이라고 생각되며, 향후 운동 선수들을 대상으로 한 치료결과 및 생역학적 분석이 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical results of resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment or modified Brostrom procedure in patients with symptomatic os subfibulare. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study on fourteen patients (14 ankles) who have symptoms associated with os subfibulare. Between August 1999 and July 2004, they underwent 4 resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment for ankle pain due to os subfibulare or 10 resection of os subfibulare and modified Brostrom procedure available for ankle instability due to os subfibulare. Follow-up period is averaged for 17.6 months (12-24 months). Clinical results were graded according to the AOFAS clinical rating system. Results: Clinical results were rated as good in 4 ankles after resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment, excellent in 5, good in 4, and fair in 1 ankle after the resection of os subfibulare and modified Brostrom procedure. In the last follow up period, 1 case of anterolateral ankle instability, 1 case of ankle pain and 1 case of inversion limitation were present postoperatively, but all symptoms were improved progressively. Conclusion: Resection of os subfibulare and modified Brostrom procedure is a good surgical technique for chronic ankle instability due to os subfibulare. But if just the ankle pain is present, resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment is a sufficient procedure.

Purpose: Ligament reattachment technique using a suture anchor appears to show satisfactory functional outcomes and mechanical stability compared with conventional bone tunnel technique. This study was prospectively conducted in order to evaluate functional outcomes of modified Brostrom procedures using the suture bridge technique for chronic ankle instability in athletes. Materials and Methods: Twenty eight athletes under 30 years of age were followed for more than two years after undergoing the modified Brostrom procedure using the suture bridge technique. Functional evaluation consisted of the foot and ankle outcome score (FAOS), foot and ankle ability measure (FAAM) score. Range of motion and time to return to exercise were evaluated using a periodic questionnaire. Talar tilt angle and anterior talar translation were measured through stress radiographs for evaluation of mechanical stability. Results: FAOS improved significantly from preoperative mean 59.4 points to 91.4 points (p<0.001). Daily living and sport activity scores of FAAM improved significantly from preoperative mean 50.5, 32.5 points to 94.8, 87.3 points, respectively (p<0.001). Talar tilt angle and anterior talar translation improved significantly from preoperative mean $16.8^{\circ}$, 13.5 mm to $4.2^{\circ}$, 4.1 mm at final follow-up (p<0.001). Times to return to exercise were as follows: mean 10.2 weeks in jogging, 15.4 weeks in spurt running, 13.1 weeks in jumping, 11.5 weeks in walking on uneven ground, 9.1 weeks in standing on one leg, 7.2 weeks in tip-toeing gait, 8.4 weeks in squatting, and 10.6 weeks in descending stairs. Conclusion: Modified Brostrom procedure using the suture bridge technique showed satisfactory functional outcomes for chronic ankle instability in athletes. Optimal indication and cost-effectiveness of the suture bridge technique will be studied in the future.
