Simple distraction method for ankle arthroscopy

Abstract

Ankle arthroscopy has been a frequently used procedure in settings such as osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT), anterolateral ankle impingement, arthroscopic-assisted arthrodesis and removal of loose bodies. Tibiotalar joint is a joint too narrow for camera entry or using instruments. Therefore, these procedures, particularly the treatment of the OLT, requires a non-invasive and simple method of distraction more suitable to obtain a clear visualization. In this technical note, we aimed to describe a novel, easy to install and useful non-invasive distraction method designed to meet these requirements in anterior ankle arthroscopy under operating room conditions.
