Ankle ligament injury is one of the most common sports injuries resulting in recurrent ankle twisting. The most common risk factor for the recurrent ankle-twisting is the previous ankle sprain. If left untreated it will lead to secondary degenerative changes in the ankle joint, recurrent ankle twisting, pain, and loss of sports performance. In most cases, MRI shows anterior talofibular ligament sprain. Traditional ATLF and CFL reconstruction or repair Involve harvesting of tendon graft, drilling holes in the ankle bones, And fixation using anchors and screws.

Achilles Tendon Tear Repair with Internal Brace

Traditionally Achilles tendon repair with suture anchors needs at least two months of immobilization in the cast after the surgery, this leads to increased morbidity and very poor surgical outcomes. peed Bridge knotless repair with biocomposite swivel lock anchors and fiber tape internal brace is At least 3 times stronger than the conventional repair and has transformed the surgical outcomes. The patient is mobilized immediately and no plaster or cast is given after the surgery.

The postoperative recovery is considerably fast and the chances of tendon re-rupture are significantly reduced. The knotless technique avoids the difficulties of tensioning several knots simultaneously and also avoids the strangulation and ischemia from the tendon rupture site which is present with the traditional suture anchor fixation.
