[Consecutive Ankle Sprain Classification and Injury Systematization (CASCaIS), A New Lateral Ankle Sprain Classification Based on the Pivot Test: A Prospective Cohort Study].

Introduction: The biggest challenge in the treatment of acute ankle sprain is the uncertainty of the prognosis. The traditional classifications have several interpretations and little correlation with prognosis. In this study we propose a new classification for acute ankle sprain only based on clinical criteria.

Isolated distal pisiform dislocation: Case Report.

Isolated pisiform dislocation is a rare lesion with few cases described in the literature. This type of lesion is typically observed in young males and can be easily overlooked at first assessment. Isolated proximal dislocation is more common due to the action of the flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) muscle.

Kinematics of the proximal tibiofibular joint is influenced by ligament integrity, knee and ankle mobility: an exploratory cadaver study.

Purpose: The proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) is a rather unknown articulation. There is little understanding of its anatomy, physiology, and functional role. The objectives of this research are to describe the normal kinematics of the PTFJ and its relation to the ankle and knee movements.

Repair with bicortical suspension device restores proximal tibiofibular joint motion.

Purpose: Dislocation of the proximal tibiofibular joint is a complex injury that is often overlooked or misdiagnosed. Surgical treatment is recommended for severe acute or for chronic symptomatic instability but there is still no evidence on the optimal reconstruction technique. The purpose of this study is to analyze the motion of the proximal tibiofibular joint after repair with a bicortical suspension device as compared to its normal kinematics.
