AI Article Synopsis
- - Lateral ankle sprains are frequent injuries that significantly affect physical function, quality of life, and healthcare costs.
- - Chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) can arise from these sprains, potentially leading to posttraumatic ankle osteoarthritis over time.
- - The article discusses the epidemiology and definition of CLAI, highlights the importance of proper clinical assessment and imaging, and reviews recent advancements in managing the condition.
Article Abstract
Lateral ankle sprain is a common injury with a substantial negative impact on physical function, quality of life and health economic burden. Chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) as a sequela of lateral ankle sprain can lead to the development of posttraumatic ankle osteoarthritis in the long term. In this article, we explore the epidemiology, burden and definition of CLAI for the appropriate clinical assessment and imaging evaluation of patients with lateral ankle sprain and CLAI. Following that, recent advances and evidence on management of CLAI is critically distilled and summarized.
