Ankle (Ligaments); Instability (Old Injury)

The goal of this experimental study is to test the feasibility and validity of a new orthosis in patients with ankle lesions (external popliteal sciatic nerve or nerve injuries resulting in loss of ankle dorsiflexion) of both sexes and all ages. The main question it aims to answer is:Is the new orthosis a support for ankle stability??Does the new orthosis improve ankle function and patients' quality of life??The control group will be the subjects themselves when wearing their conventional ankle orthosis or without it. Participants must wear the new ankle orthosis for at least one month to assess the effectiveness of the orthosis and evaluate any changes that have occurred in the ankle joint and muscles.

Ankle arthroscopy is increasingly performed as a day-case procedure, making rapid recovery and efficient discharge critical. Anesthetic technique substantially influences postoperative recovery, yet high-quality evidence comparing anesthetic strategies in ankle arthroscopy is limited. This multicenter randomized trial compares total intravenous anesthesia with propofol plus peripheral nerve block (PNB), general anesthesia plus PNB, and spinal anesthesia, with PACU-I recovery time as the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes include postoperative pain, opioid consumption, hospital length of stay, adverse events, recovery quality, satisfaction, limb weakness, and intraoperative hemodynamics.

This 20-year cohort study foolows patients after ankle ligament reconstruction surgery to evaluate re-rupture rates, long term functional outcomes, return to sport rates ans complications? The goal is to provide insights into the procedure's durability and effectiveness to enhance patient care.
