Purpose: To evaluate the clinical results of resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment or modified Brostrom procedure in patients with symptomatic os subfibulare. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study on fourteen patients (14 ankles) who have symptoms associated with os subfibulare. Between August 1999 and July 2004, they underwent 4 resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment for ankle pain due to os subfibulare or 10 resection of os subfibulare and modified Brostrom procedure available for ankle instability due to os subfibulare. Follow-up period is averaged for 17.6 months (12-24 months). Clinical results were graded according to the AOFAS clinical rating system. Results: Clinical results were rated as good in 4 ankles after resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment, excellent in 5, good in 4, and fair in 1 ankle after the resection of os subfibulare and modified Brostrom procedure. In the last follow up period, 1 case of anterolateral ankle instability, 1 case of ankle pain and 1 case of inversion limitation were present postoperatively, but all symptoms were improved progressively. Conclusion: Resection of os subfibulare and modified Brostrom procedure is a good surgical technique for chronic ankle instability due to os subfibulare. But if just the ankle pain is present, resection of os subfibulare and lateral ligament reattachment is a sufficient procedure.

Purpose: To investigate clinical features and treatment of os subfibulare Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study on twenty-eight patients who have symtoms associated with os subfibulare. We reviewed charts and radiographs. Thirteen patients were treated surgically and fifteen patients were treated conservatively. We analysed clinical results in 25 patients who were followed for more than one year. Results: Duration from the onset of symtoms to treatment was more than six months in twelve of thirteen surgically treated cases, and in only two of fifteen conservative treated cases. Surgical procedures were internal fixation of the os subfibulare in two patients, and resection of os subfibulare and ligament reconstructions in eleven patients. Clinical results were excellent in six, good in three and poor in two of operatively treated patients. In conservatively treated patients, five excellent, five good, one fair and one poor clinical results were obtained. Conclusion: Os subfibulare is not necessarily a cause of instability and pain, but in cases with chronic pain and/or instability, surgical treatment would result in satisfactory result.

Purpose: To analyze the clinical and radiological feature of Os subfibulare and to evaluate the results after anatomical reduction and internal fixation with bone graft for Os subfibulare. Materials and Methods: Forty-two cases, which underwent anatomic reduction and bone graft for Os subfibulare from October 1998 to September 2004 were reviewed. We analysed preopertive symptoms and onset of symptoms and radiologically measured the size and amounts of displacement of Os subfibulare under the inversion stress. Postoperatively we evaluated the clinical results measured by Hasegawa method and evidence of union. Results: Preoperatively there were only pain around the lateral malleolus in 16 cases, only instability of ankle joint in 3 cases, and pain and instability in 23 cases. The age of symptom onset averaged 23 years(range, 13-38 years). Radiographically Os sufibulare anteriorly located from lateral malleolus were in 40 cases, posteriorly situated in 2 cases. The size of Os subfibulare ranged from $1{\times}4\;mm$ to $8{\times}17\;mm$. In 22 cases of inversion stress view, displacement of the Os sbufibulare averaged $1.5{\pm}1.1\;mm$ (0 to 5 mm). The postoperative clinical results were excellent in 41 cases, poor in 1 case. There were complications of 1 case of irritation of sural nerve, 1 case of nonunion. Conclusion: Anatomic reduction and bone graft is effective treatment method for symptomatic Os subfibulare.

목적: 통증을 동반한 비골하 부골과 경골하 부골의 관절경을 이용한 절제술 후 그 결과를 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법: 비골하 부골과 경골 부골에 대하여 관절경적 절제술을 시행한 환자 중 16명의 환자를 대상으로 하였으며, 경골 부골이 4예, 비골하 부골이 12예 였다. 평균 추시 기간은 9개월(범위:$6\{sim}42$개월)이었다. 모든 환자는 임상적으로 미학적 검사와 방사선학적으로 단순 방사선 촬영을 시행하였고, 8예에서 골 주사 검사, 3예에서 단층촬영 및 12예에서 MRI 검사를 시행하였다. 절제술의 결과는 Ogilvie-Harris의 방법으로 평가하였다. 결과: 술 후 통증, 관절 강직 등의 주관적 평가와 파행, 활동성의 기능적 평가에서 모두 술 전보다 통계적으로 유의하게 호전되었다(p<0.05) 술 후, 8예에서 경미한 통증과 간헐적인 부종이 남아있었으며, 이중 3예에서 활액막염이, 3예에서 MRI상 전염이 동반된 경우였고, 2예에서 불충분한 절제를 했던 경우였다. 결론: 통증을 동반한 경골하 부골 및 비골하 부골의 관절경을 이용한 절제술은 최소 침습적 이고 동반 병변도 함께 치료할 수 있는 효과적인 수술방법이다. 또한 완전 절제를 위해 술 전에 방사선학적 평가가 필수적이며, 동반 병변을 알아내는데는 MRI등의 특수검사가 유용하다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the surgical results of modified $Brostr{\ddot{o}}m$ procedure for chronic lateral ankle instability and to assess whether or not associated injuries may affect postoperative satisfaction. Materials and Methods: Twenty- four patients with chronic lateral ankle instability were evaluated retrospectively from August 1998 to March 2002. Average age was 29.3 years. All patients were performed pre & postoperative ankle anteroposterior and lateral view, stress anterior drawer and varus test using Telos device, MRI and intraoperative arthroscopic evaluations before ligament reconstruction. Results: Of the 24 cases, 23 cases was improved more than average 12 points on AOFAS scales. On modified scales of Hamilton, 3 excellent, 20 good, 1 fair results. On stress view, average 2.2 mm difference was improved on anterior drawer test and average 1.7 degree on varus test. Associated injuries were 8 osteochondral defects, 4 anterior impingements, 2 loose bodies, 2 os subfibulare, 2 os submalleolare and 2 partial ruptures of peroneus brevis. 8 cases with no associated injuries rated excellent or good. Conclusion: The modified $Brostr{\ddot{o}}m$ procedure is believed to be an effective and successful method for chronic lateral ankle instability that didn't respond to conservative treatment. Because associated injuries in chronic lateral ankle instability may affect postoperative satisfaction, appropriate detection and treatment may need for postoperative satisfaction.

Purpose: We analyzed the ankle bony abnormality of patients with marked ankle instability who had chronic ankle sprain more than 3 years. Materials and Methods: We evaluated the chronic ankle sprain (more than 3 years) patients with marked ankle instability tested by varus stress test and anterior draw test from March 2000 to December 2005. Eighty-nine patients (104 ankle) were evaluated and there were 38 males and 51 females. The mean age of patient at the time of diagnosis was 34.5 (range, 18 to 56 years). The average duration of morbidity was 7 years and 3 months (range, 3 years and 3 months to 21 years). The patients who had history of dislocation, fracture, malalignment, operated patients, and rheumatoid ones were excluded. Plain radiographs of AP, lateral, oblique and mortise view were checked. Results: Radilologic abnormalities were found at 74 ankles (71%) among 104 ankles. Frequent sequences of location were anterior talotibial osteophyte, medial malleolar osteophyte, Os subfibulare, lateral malleolar osteophyte. Posteior osteophyte, ankle arthritis, talar articular defect were rarely found. Conclusion: Seventy-one percent among patients with chronic ankle sprain and marked ankle instability showed more than one radiologic abnormalities. Thus, more exclusive and accurate ankle examination should be performed in these patients.

Purpose: To evaluate clinical features of ankle lesions, associated with anterior soft tissue impingement. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 21 patients who had chronic anterior ankle pain as initial symptom and associated ankle lesions with anterior soft tissue impingement. Based on preoperative radiologic findings, physical examination intra-operative findings, appropriate procedures were done for lesions by either arthroscopic or minimal open procedure or combined. Clinical evaluation was done using American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society, ankle-hind foot score (AOFAS score) and visual analog scale (VAS) on last follow up. Results: Associated lesion(s) to anterior soft tissue impingement of the ankle were 16 cases of osteochondral lesion of talus, 14 cases of bony impingement, 6 cases of ankle lateral instability, 5 cases of loose body, 4 cases of os subfibulare. AOFAS score was $58.9\;{\pm}\;5.1$ preoperatively and $74\;{\pm}\;9.1$ on last follow up. Clinical satisfaction score using VAS showed excellent in 3 cases, good in 11, fair in 3, poor in 4. Conclusion: The patients who had anterior soft tissue impingement would have various associated lesions on their ankle. In such cases, preoperative counseling for variety of postoperative results would be needed.
