All-inside endoscopic semiautomatic running locked stitch technique shows favourable outcomes for acute Achilles tendon ruptures.

Purpose: The safety and reliability of endoscopic Achilles tendon rupture repair are still concerning aspects. This study's aim is to evaluate an all-inside endoscopic semiautomatic running locked stitch (Endo-SARLS) technique.

Methods: Forty cases with acute Achilles tendon rupture were treated with the all-inside Endo-SARLS technique between 2020 and 2021.

Correlation between the Coaptation and Regeneration of Tendon Stumps in Endoscopic Assisted Achilles Tendon Rupture Repair.

Objective: When the endoscopic Achilles tendon repair technique is utilized, direct stitching of the ruptured site is challenging due to the frayed tendon stumps. To explore whether undesirable coaptation of the tendon stumps influences the generation of the tendons.

Methods: This study is a retrospective analysis of 46 patients who underwent a modified endoscopic Achilles tendon rupture repair from October 2018 to June 2020.

Retrograde Drilling and Bone Graft for Hepple Stage V Subchondral Bone Lesion of Talus Using 3D Image-Based Navigation-Assisted Endoscopic Technique.

Background: Retrograde drilling remains technically challenging, because of the difficulty of identifying the accurate location of cysts during surgery. This study's aim was to evaluate the 3-dimensional (3D) image-based surgical navigation-assisted endoscopic retrograde drilling technique for subchondral bone lesions of the talus.

Methods: From March 2017 to June 2020, a total of 21 cases with Hepple stage V subchondral bone lesions of the talus were treated with 3D image-based surgical navigation-assisted endoscopic retrograde drilling and bone graft technique.

Modified classifications and surgical decision-making process for chronic anterior talofibular ligament injuries based on the correlation of imaging studies and arthroscopic findings.

Purpose: Surgical treatment of chronic ankle instability (CAI) typically includes ligament repair or reconstruction. Using preoperative ultrasonography or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to choose an appropriate arthroscopic procedure is still difficult. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation of imaging studies with arthroscopic findings and support the arthroscopic surgical decision-making process.

Arthro-Broström with endoscopic retinaculum augmentation using all-inside lasso-loop stitch techniques.

Background: There is still some controversy about the augmentation of the inferior extensor retinaculum after arthroscopic anterior talofibular ligament repair. The aim of this study was to evaluate the novel arthro-Broström procedure with endoscopic retinaculum augmentation using all-inside lasso-loop stitch techniques for chronic lateral ankle instability.

Methods: Thirty-four cases with grade-2 or grade-3 chronic anterior talofibular ligament lesions who underwent the novel arthro-Broström procedure with endoscopic retinaculum augmentation using all-inside lasso-loop stitch techniques were assessed retrospectively.

Fully Intra-articular Lasso-Loop Stitch Technique for Arthroscopic Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair.

Background: Arthroscopic techniques have gradually become popular for anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) repair. However, the reliability of the repair and the risk of nerve injuries are of concern. The aim of this study was to evaluate the fully intra-articular lasso-loop stitch technique for arthroscopic ATFL repair.

Modified mini-incision "internal splinting" versus percutaneous repair technique of acute Achilles tendon rupture: five year retrospective case-controlled study.

Purpose: Several kinds of minimally invasive surgical techniques are applied to acute Achilles tendon rupture. The risks of sural never injury and re-ruptures are still major issues. The purpose of this study was to compare the middle-term results of two different minimally invasive repair techniques for acute Achille tendon rupture.

Nonoperative treatment of insertional Achilles tendinopathy: a systematic review.

Background: Insertional Achilles tendinopathy is difficult to manage, and there is no definite consensus on which nonoperative treatment is superior over the others. We aim to provide a clear summary of the best available evidence for nonoperative treatment specific to insertional Achilles tendinopathy.

Methods: Literatures were searched in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases from inception to October 2020.
