Red Net Moment, January 17 (Correspondent Mao Xiaodong) 20-year-old Xiao Luo accidentally sprained while playing ball, appeared in the right ankle pain is unbearable, limited movement, came to Changsha City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Changsha Eighth Hospital) South Hospital for treatment. Mao Xiaodong, attending physician of the fourth ward of the Department of Orthopedic Traumatology, received the consultation, and after a detailed inquiry of medical history and systematic examination, it was believed that there was no obvious fracture, the swelling of the outer ankle was obvious and accompanied by obvious ankle instability, and the front drawer test was positive, which may not be a simple ankle sprain, but accompanied by ligament injury, and it is recommended to be hospitalized for further treatment.
Preoperative MRI of the right ankle: tear from the anterior fibula ligament
After Mao Ziqing, the head of the department, learned about the condition, he suggested that the MRI examination be improved as soon as possible. Subsequently, Xiao Luo was diagnosed with a tear of the right ankle from the anterior fibula ligament, exactly as predicted at the beginning.
Mao Ziqing led chief physician Cheng Yufu, deputy chief physician Li Zhi and Mao Xiaodong to discuss the condition and decided to use the current more advanced and minimally invasive technique for Xiao Luo. Subsequently, the surgical team performed arthroscopic surgery to repair the anterior fibula ligament, and only 3 0.5 cm incisions were seen after the operation. Xiao Luo recovered well and was discharged from the hospital a week later. Before discharge, I specially thanked the medical staff of the department for their careful care in the guestbook.
Mao Ziqing introduced that the ankle joint is the closest weight-bearing joint of the human body to the ground, and it is also the joint with the most weight on the whole body. Ankle sprains are high-incidence sports injuries, accounting for about 40% of sports injuries. The stability of the ankle joint plays an important role in the daily activities and sports. Patients with ankle sprains and no fractures used to give symptomatic supportive treatment such as splint external fixation, generally do not pay attention to the situation of ligament injury, and are prone to habitual ankle sprains, which is commonly known as the foot. With the continuous development of modern sports medicine, the problem of ligament injury has received more and more attention, and more emphasis is paid to the treatment method of "both muscle and bone". The department took the lead in carrying out minimally invasive arthroscopic repair of the anterior fibula ligament in the hospital, which has the advantages of small injury, fast recovery, few complications and early rehabilitation training compared with traditional incision surgery.
