False aneurysms following inversion trauma of the ankle are very uncommon. We present a case of a 40-year-old male referred to our radiology department with persisting and painful swelling of the ankle following an inversion trauma. An MRI scan was performed that showed a false aneurysm originating from a distal anterior tibial artery side branch; the lateral malleolar artery. The false aneurysm was confirmed with ultrasound and successfully treated with ultrasoundguided thrombin injection. The patient made an uneventful recovery.

Introduction: Bony and ligamentous ankle injuries are some of the most commonly treated injuries by orthopedic surgeons. Open ligamentous ankle injuries without an associated fracture or dislocation are rare and to our knowledge have only sparsely been described in the literature. We present a case and successful treatment of an open lateral ankle injury with capsular rupture and ligamentous damage without fracture or dislocation in a 22-year-old female.

Background: To compare the clinical outcomes of inferior extensor retinaculum (IER) augmentation following repair of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) with isolated ATFL repair in patients with an arthroscopically confirmed grade 3 lesion of the ATFL.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of consecutive chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) patients who underwent arthroscopic ATFL repair between March 2018 and August 2022. The average age of the patients was 31.

Objective: This study conducts a rigorous meta-analysis of existing literature to rigorously examine the efficacy of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) in ameliorating functional deficits associated with Chronic Ankle Instability (CAI).
Methods: Literature searches were conducted in multiple databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP, Wanfang, China Biology Medicine disc (CBM), PubMed, EBSCO (Medline, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, and Rehabilitation & Sports Medicine Source), Embase, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for randomized controlled trials assessing the effects of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation interventions on patients with Chronic Ankle Instability. The publication timeframe spanned from the inception of each database until April 10, 2024.
The Biomechanical Effects of Kinesiology Taping Methods on Side-Step Cutting Movements in Chronic Ankle Instability.

: The ankle joint is among the most vulnerable areas for injuries during daily activities and sports. This study focuses on individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI), comparing the biomechanical characteristics of the lower limb during side-step cutting under various conditions. The aim is to analyze the impact of kinesiology tape (KT) length on the biomechanical properties of the lower limb during side-step cutting, thereby providing theoretical support and practical guidance for protective measures against lower-limb sports injuries.
