Full textAbstract:
Strain was measured in the normal anterior talofibular ligament (ATF) and the calcaneofibular ligament (CF) using Hall effect strain transducers in five cadaveric ankles. These measurements were made in both ligaments with the ankle in neutral position and with the foot moving from 10° dorsiflexion to 40° plantarflexion in an apparatus that permits physiologic motion. The ankle ligaments were then tested with the foot placed in six different positions that combined supination, pronation, external rotation, and internal rotation. In the neutral position, through a range of motion of 10° dorsiflexion to 40° plantarflexion, the anterior talofibular ligament underwent an increasing strain of 3.3%. No significant strain increase was found with internal rotation. The only significant difference from the strains at the neutral position was in external rotation, which decreased strain 1.9%. In all positions, increased strain occurred with increased plantarflexion. The calcaneofibular ligament was essentially isometric in the neutral position throughout the flexion arc. The calcaneofibular ligament strain was significantly increased by supination and external rotation. However, with increasing plantarflexion in these positions, the strain in the calcaneofibular ligament decreased. Therefore, plantarflexion has a relaxing effect on the calcaneofibular ligament. Thus, the anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments are synergistic, such that when one ligament is relaxed, the other is strained and vice versa.

Full textAbstract:
The present research was made by following three directions: dissection and plastination, clinical ankle joint ligament injuries and MRI and CT examination of the cases.191 cases of ankle joint ligament injuries have been studied during two years. They were examined clinically and radiologically, using CT and MRI testing. The classification of ankle sprain was based on the number of injured ligaments. Out of the 191 cases diagnosed with ligament injuries, 92 involved the anterior talofibular ligament, 54 in the calcaneofibular ligament, 40 involved the posterior talofibular ligament and 5 involved the deltoid ligament. First degree sprain involves the injury of the anterior talofibular ligament, the second degree sprain involves the injury of the anterior talofibular ligament and of the calcaneofibular ligament, and the third degree sprain involves the damaging of anterior and posterior talofibular ligaments, as well as the calcaneofibular ligament. In this paper we have diagnosed a number of 39 first degree springs, 12 of second degree springs and 41 of third degree springs. The standard X- ray examinations have a low diagnostic rate of the ankle ligament injuries. Conventional MRI has a higher accuracy in diagnosing ankle joint collateral ligaments lesions.

Full textAbstract:
The cervical ligament plays a significant role in lateral stability of the subtalar joint but has received little attention compared with other ankle and subtalar joint ligaments. The purpose of this research was twofold. First, the elongation behavior of the cervical ligament was assessed with the calcaneofibular ligament intact and cut during two different types of inversion loads (manual and mechanical). Second, inversion range of motion was determined concomitantly with inversion loading and the difference in inversion range of motion between the calcaneofibular ligament intact to cut state was compared. The mean elongation of the cervical ligament with the calcaneofibular intact was 0.58 mm (± 0.33 mm) and 0.46 mm (± 0.23 mm) for manual and mechanical methods, respectively, and 0.88 mm (± 0.37 mm) and 0.78 mm (± 0.37 mm), respectively, for the same methods in the absence of the calcaneofibular ligament. This difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 manually and P < 0.02 mechanically). An average increase in the inversion range of motion was noted with both methods [7.5° manually (± 2.75°) and 7.7° mechanically (± 2.95°)] after lesioning of the calcaneofibular ligament. This difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.001) for both manual and mechanical range of motion testing. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant increase in elongation of the cervical ligament in the absence of the calcaneofibular ligament during manual and mechanically applied inversion loads in a open kinetic chain. Clinical and theoretical implications of this data are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Aim of study: Most sprained lateral ankle ligaments heal uneventfully, but in some cases the ligament’s elastic function is not restored, leading to chronic ankle instability. Ultrasound shear wave elastography can be used to quantify the elasticity of musculoskeletal soft tissues; it may serve as a test of ankle ligament function during healing to potentially help differentiate normal from ineffective healing. The purpose of this study was to determine baseline shear wave velocity values for the lateral ankle ligaments in healthy male subjects, and to assess inter-observer reliability. Material and methods: Forty-six ankles in 23 healthy male subjects aged 20–40 years underwent shear wave elastography of the lateral ankle ligaments performed by two musculoskeletal radiologists. Each ligament was evaluated three times with the ankle relaxed by both examiners, and under stress by a single examiner. Mean shear wave velocity values were compared for each ligament by each examiner. Inter-observer agreement was evaluated. Results: The mean shear wave velocity at rest for the anterior talofibular ligament was 2.09 ± 0.3 (range 1.41–3.17); and for the calcaneofibular ligament 1.99 ± 0.36 (range 1.29–2.88). Good inter-observer agreement was found for the anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament shear wave velocity measurements with the ankle in resting position. There was a significant difference in mean shear wave velocities between rest and stressed conditions for both anterior talofibular ligament (2.09 m/s vs 3.21 m/s; p <0.001) and calcaneofibular ligament (1.99 m/s vs 3.42 m/s; p <0.0001). Conclusion: Shear wave elastography shows promise as a reproducible method to quantify ankle ligament stiffness. This study reveals that shear waves velocities of the normal lateral ankle ligaments increased with applied stress compared to the resting state.

Full textAbstract:
The stabilizing role of various ligaments in the lateral side of the ankle and hindfoot was examined experimentally and sequentially using 10 fresh amputated lower limbs. The anterior talofibular ligament contributed to ankle stability in plantarflexion and the calcaneofibular, the fibulotalocalcaneal, and posterior talofibular ligament in all positions. The lateral root of the inferior extensor retinaculum contributed to subtalar stability in neutral and dorsiflexion. The calcaneofibular, fibulotalocalcaneal, and cervical ligaments and the ligament of the anterior capsule of the posterior talocalcaneal joint and the interosseous ligaments contributed to subtalar stability in all positions. The subtalar joint accounted for upward of 50% of ankle/hindfoot inversion after ligament division in the intermalleolar plane.

Category: Arthroscopy Introduction/Purpose: To evaluate the clinical results of an anatomical reconstruction of anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament under arthroscopy in treatment of chronic ankle instability. Methods From June 2013 to August 2016, 27 patients (28 ankles) with chronic ankle instability were treated with the anatomical reconstruction of anterior talofibular ligaments and calcaneofibular ligaments. All patients were evaluated preoperatively and at the last follow up using the visual analog scale(VAS) score, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score. The talar tilt angle and anterior translation were assessed radiographically in pre- and postoperative ankle stress views. Methods: From June 2013 to August 2016, 27 patients (28 ankles) with chronic ankle instability were treated with the anatomical reconstruction of anterior talofibular ligaments and calcaneofibular ligaments. All patients were evaluated preoperatively and at the last follow up using the visual analog scale(VAS) score, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score. The talar tilt angle and anterior translation were assessed radiographically in pre- and postoperative ankle stress views. Results: The operations were lasted for 75.8 minutes(72~104 minutes). 28 cases were received a mean follow up of 14.8 months(range, 12~25 months. The mean VAS pain score decreased from 5.79 to 1.54(t=26.63, P<0.01), and the medial AOFAS score improved from 63.64 to 90.21(t=-16.57, P<0.01). Imageological examination were completed 16.8 months after the operation (range, 12~25 months). The mean talar tilt decreased from 15.6°to 6.01°(t=25.39, P<0.01),and anterior translation of the talar reduced from a mean of 10.82 to 4.03 mm(t=15.79, P<0.01). Conclusion: Arthroscopic anatomical reconstruction of anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament could improve the function and stability of ankle joints effectively, providing a valid option for treating chronic ankle instability.

Full textAbstract:
In the evaluation of the role of the calcaneofibular ligament in stabilizing the talocalcaneal joint, an experimental set-up was prepared. In 10 osteoligamentous specimens, the talocalcaneal motion was measured under a constant well defined moment by using a specially constructed apparatus. By using a moment of 1.5 Nm, increment in adduction in the talocalcaneal joint after section of the calcaneofibular ligament was found between 3.1° and 4.6°, still increasing with dorsiflexion. This increment, shown to constitute 61 to 77% of the total increment in adduction in the hindfoot after section of the calcaneofibular ligament, was found to increase gradually with dorsiflexion. The study has shown the calcaneofibular ligament as an important structure in stabilizing the talocalcaneal joint. Increment in adduction in the hindfoot after section of the calcaneofibular ligament was shown primarily to take place in the talocalcaneal joint.

Background Ankle ultrasound imaging could be an option with higher priority due to its lack of radiation, and cost- and time-effectiveness. However, previous studies regarding anterior tibiofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament injuries have shown varied results. Purpose To evaluate the diagnostic performance of ankle ultrasound for anterior tibiofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament injuries. Material and Methods PubMed and EMBASE databases were searched for diagnostic accuracy studies that used ultrasound for diagnosing anterior tibiofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament injuries. Bivariate and hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic modeling were used to evaluate diagnostic performance. Subgroup analysis was performed using studies according to severity of the injury (complete and partial anterior tibiofibular ligament tear). We performed meta-regression analyses for heterogeneity exploration. Results Ten articles involving a total of 380 patients were included. For anterior tibiofibular ligament injury, the summary sensitivity, summary specificity, and area under the hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were 0.99, 0.92, and 0.99, respectively. For calcaneofibular ligament injury, the summary sensitivity, summary specificity, and AUC were 0.95, 0.99, and 0.95, respectively. In subgroup analysis, for complete anterior tibiofibular ligament tear, the summary sensitivity, summary specificity, and AUC were 0.96, 0.82, and 0.96, respectively. For partial anterior tibiofibular ligament tear, the summary sensitivity, summary specificity, and AUC were 0.90, 0.82, and 0.93, respectively. Among the various potential covariates, proportion of anterior tibiofibular ligament tear, ultrasound interpreter, and reference standard were associated with specificity heterogeneity. Conclusion Ankle ultrasound demonstrates high diagnostic performance in the diagnosis of anterior tibiofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament injuries. We recommend ultrasound performed by a musculoskeletal radiologist as a first-line diagnostic tool to diagnose anterior tibiofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament injuries.

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>醫學工程學研究所<br>99<br>Ankle joint plays a very important role in human motion. Haman activities like normal walking, climbing upstairs and kinds of exercises, are depending on healthy ankle join, and in ankle joint, anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament are the key for stability. Past studies indicate that it is usually damaged ligaments when ankle injured, especially in anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament, so there are studies discuss about the properties of them, not only for the knowledge of biomechanics of ligaments, but also for the application of clinical surgery.
The main challenge in biomechanics is that the internal force in ligaments in living is hard to measure, and limitations in non-direct way are hard to brake. The past studies about joint are using robotic system to process draw test, and obtain the data in soft tissue in joint motion, but the motion of Talus is uncontrolled in ankle, so the robotic system is not perfectly applied in ankle; in simulation, there are few studies using appropriate material to simulate ligaments.
This study reconstructed an ankle model including tibia, fibula, talus, calcaneus, anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligament by MRI, then combine robotic joint testing system and motion analysis system to process laxity test in -10, -5, 0, 5, 10 Dorsiflexion, and using the experimental data to validate the accuracy of the model.
The results of this study show that it is possible to reprocess a cadaver experiment in computer model. In the future this technology can be developed and applied on living body, with corrected kinematic data of bones and subject-specific ligament parameters it is possible to calculate the force in functional activities, and provide a reliable data for clinical rehabilitation and ligament replacement.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 109 discusses MRI of the ankle and foot internal derangements, namely tendon and ligament tears, osteochondral defects, and miscellaneous. Tenosynovitis may be detected anywhere in the ankle and foot, except along the Achilles tendon where a tendon sheath is absent and there is a paratenon. Tendinosis and tendon tears occur most commonly in the Achilles, posterior tibial, and peroneal tendons. Peroneal tendons may subluxate or dislocate anteriorly with superior peroneal retinacular disruption or may become transposed with intrasheath dislocations. The anterior talofibular ligament is the most commonly torn ankle ligament caused by inversion injuries. Calcaneofibular ligament tears may occur in conjunction with an anterior talofibular ligament tear. MRI is helpful in differentiating stable from unstable talar dome osteochondral defects, because of high spatial resolution of the articular cartilage and underlying bone.

Ankle sprains are common injuries in daily and athletic activities. An epidemiological report indicated that the incidence rate of ankle sprains treated in emergency departments in the USA is more than 2 per 1000 persons a year, and the rate is estimated to be more than double as for ankle sprains in athletic activity [1]. Better understanding of ankle biomechanics is, therefore, important for the improvement of clinical outcome. Many investigators have performed in vitro and in vivo experiments to determine the mechanical roles of ankle structures such as range of motion, contribution of ankle ligaments to joint stability, joint instability due to ligament transection, and so on. In spite of these efforts, tensile forces in ankle ligaments in response to specific loading conditions still remains unclear because of a lack of experimental methodology. Meanwhile, the use of robotic technology for knee joint biomechanics study has been established by Fujie et al [2]. Using the technique, tensile forces in knee cruciate ligaments have been determined by Woo et al [3], Li et al [4], Fujie et al [5], and other groups, while ligament reconstruction technique has been evaluated by many investigators [for example 6–8]. Therefore, the objectives of the present study were to determine the ankle joint instability due to ligament transection and to determine the tensile forces in the anterior tarofibular ligament (ATFL) and calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) in response to anterior-posterior (AP) drawer force to the human cadaveric ankle joints.

Numerous studies on the mechanisms of ankle injury deal with injuries to the syndesmosis and anterior ligamentous structures, but previous sectioning and clinical studies also describe the important role of the posterior talofibular ligament (PTaFL) in the ankle’s resistance to external rotation of the foot. Foot constraint may influence subtalar motion and the movement of the bones in the foot, thereby influencing the mode of injury during external rotation [1]. Stiehl et al. [2] constrain the foot with fiberglass cast tape, externally rotate the foot 90°, and produce injury to the deltoid ligament and anterior tibiofibular ligament (ATiFL) with bone fracture. In contrast, Stormont et al. [3] fix the foot in a potting alloy and conclude the primary ligamentous restraints to external rotation are the PTaFL and calcaneofibular ligament (CaFL).
