Ankle Sprains

  • Symposium Addresses Difficult to Treat Ankle Sprains

In the United States, the incidence of ankle sprains is roughly 2,300 a day, almost 100 every hour. Although the majority of acute ankle sprains heal without surgery, approximately 15 to 20 percent of patients have persistent ankle symptoms. Failure of the ankle to heal may be due to cartilage injuries, subtle ankle fractures, tendon tears, development of scar tissue, or abnormalities unmasked by an ankle sprain. A panel of foot and ankle specialists will use a case-based approach to describe their experiences with diagnosing and treating many of the conditions that are responsible for persistent pain and loss of function after ankle sprain. In addition to a review of conventional treatment methods, the panelists will highlight state-of-the-art techniques of rehabilitation, minimally invasive surgery, and arthroscopy.
