Advantages and Risks and/or Limitations of This Technique

Advantages Risks and/or Limitations
We can more clearly assess the condition of intra-articular lesions. Arthroscopic surgery experience is needed.
Arthroscopic procedures are less invasive than open procedures. This technique only allows ATFL augmentation
Our procedure is simpler than previous procedures because only one anchor is used to fix both the remnant ligament and the artificial ligament on the fibula. The long-term results are unclear.
In young children who still have epiphyseal lines, the fibula side knotless anchor can destroy their epiphyseal line.

ATFL, anterior talofibular ligament.
