This editorial critically explores the use of ankle thigh tourniquets in foot and ankle surgery based on a recent study that found no significant difference in postoperative pain between the two placement techniques. Despite these findings, we argue for the preferential use of ankle tourniquets, highlighting their potential benefits in reducing venous blood stasis and minimizing soft tissue injury. This approach underscores the importance of considering long-term patient outcomes and vascular health beyond immediate postoperative pain.

Gunshot injuries to the foot with segmental bone defects can be challenging to treat. When the vascularity is intact and the soft tissues allows, the goal should be to reconstruct the bony defect. We present 2 cases of a gunshot injury to the foot with a defect of the first metatarsal bone.

To improve the use of sensate anterolateral thigh (ALT) flaps for foot and ankle reconstruction, we employed a thinned nerve-selective harvesting technique. The data of 31 patients in whom sensate ALT perforator flaps were transferred for reconstruction of soft-tissue defects in the foot and ankle were reviewed. Flaps were elevated with 2 refinements.

Introduction: Tibial pilon fractures, involving the weight-bearing surface of the distal tibia,present a formidable challenge for orthopedic surgeons due to their complex nature and the delicate soft tissue envelope surrounding the ankle joint.Early approaches to pilon fracturesoften resulted in poor outcomes, but modern principles of internal fixation and anatomicalreconstruction have significantly improved patient prognosis. Despite advancements in surgicaltechniques and implants, achieving anatomical reduction of the articular surface remains asignificant hurdle.

Distal third tibial fractures associated with anterior soft tissue compromise are a predictor of more complications and poor prognosis. The study aimed to introduce the treatment of such fractures through the posterolateral approach. From March 2020 and January 2022, 32 patients with distal third tibial fractures were plated through the posterolateral approach due to concurrent closed anterior soft tissue compromise.

The aim of this study was to analyze the characteristics of the cases of post-traumatic lower limb deformity and explore the new principle of limb reconstruction.
Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 148 patients with post-traumatic lower limb deformity who underwent surgery from May 1978 to December 2023; 85 were males (57.

The gold standard diagnostic imaging tool for ankle OCLs is magnetic resonance imaging, which allows precise evaluation of the articular cartilage and assessment of the surrounding soft tissue structures. Post-operative morphologic MRI assessment via MOCART scores provide semi-quantitative analysis of the repair tissue, but mixed evidence exists regarding its association with post-operative outcomes. Post-operative biochemical MRIs allow assessment of the collagen network of the articular cartilage via T2-mapping and T2∗ mapping, and assessment of the articular glycosaminoglycan content via delayed gadolinium-enhanced MRI of cartilage (dGEMRIC), T1rho mapping and sodium imaging.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of antibiotic bone cement combined with the lobulated perforator flap based on the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral artery (d-LCFA) in the treatment of infected traumatic tissue defects in the foot, in accordance with the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) concept.
Methods: From December 2019 to November 2022, 10 patients with infected traumatic tissue defects of the foot were treated with antibiotic bone cement combined with the d-LCFA lobulated perforator flap. The cohort comprised 6 males and 4 females, aged 21 to 67 years.

Background: Acute injuries to the tibiofibular syndesmosis, often associated with high ankle sprains or malleolar fractures, require precise diagnosis and treatment to prevent long-term complications. This case report explores the use of needle arthroscopy as a minimally invasive technique for the repair of tibiofibular syndesmosis injuries.
Case Summary: We report on a 40-year-old male patient who presented with a trimalleolar fracture and ankle subluxation following a high ankle sprain.

Background: Distal tibial fractures represent common lower limb injuries, frequently accompanied by significant soft tissue damage. The optimal surgical approach for managing these fractures remains a topic of considerable debate. The aim of this study was to perform a comparative analysis of the outcomes associated with retrograde intramedullary tibial nails (RTN) and minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) in the context of treating extra-articular distal tibial fractures.

Bosworth fracture-dislocation presents a challenge in ankle joint injuries owing to its irreducible nature, requiring open reduction in most cases. Reports on successful outcomes following closed reduction are limited, necessitating exploration into alternative treatment approaches. Herein, we report a case of Bosworth fracture-dislocation in a 39-year-old man, with radiographic evidence of posterior displacement of the distal portion of the proximal fibular fragment incarcerated behind the tibia.
