ABSTRACT

Objetivo. As entorses do complexo lateral do tornozelo são lesões freqüentementeencontradas na prática de atividades físicas, sendo o ligamento fibulotalar anterior o mais comumente lesado; a maioria delas responde satisfatoriamente ao tratamento conservador. Parte dos pacientes desenvolve dor e instabilidade crônica, necessitando tratamento cirúrgico. A proposta deste estudo foi avaliar os pacientes operados pela técnica de Brostrõm devido à instabilidade lateral crônica do tornozelo.MétodosForam analisados no Hospital e Maternidade Celso Pierro 20 pacientes cominstabilidade lateral crônica do tornozelo submetidos à técnica cirúrgica deBrostrõm, sendo onze mulheres e nove homens, com média de idade de 32,7 anos. Os pacientes foram submetidos à avaliação clínica funcional por meio dos protocolos da American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society e Maryland Foot Score no momento da indicação cirúrgica e um ano após a cirurgia. Resultados As avaliações pós-operatórias mostraram acréscimo de zero a 64, com média de 25,1 pontos, pelo protocolo da American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society, e de zero a 45 com média de 14,6 pontos pelo protocolo da Maryland Foot Score, que classificou 14 resultados como excelentes (70%), cinco como bons (25%), e um como regular (5%). ConclusãoA técnica de Brostrõm mostrou-se eficaz no tratamento das instabilidades laterais crônicas do tornozelo.


Objective Spraining of the ankle's lateral complex are lesions that occur frequently during the practice of sports activities. The anterior fibulotalar ligament is most commonly affected and usually responds well to non-surgical treatment. The patients that present pain and chronic instability usually require surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the patients who underwent the Brostrõm?s technique with chronic lateral ankle instability.MethodsTwenty patients were analyzed at the Maternity Hospital Celso Piero. Eleven women and nine men, with an average age of 32.7 years, presenting chronic lateral instability were submitted to surgery using the Brostrõm?s technique. A clinical analysis of the patients was done at the moment of the surgical indication and one year after the procedure. The parameters analyzed were based on the protocols established by the American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) and Maryland Foot Score.ResultsThe post-operative scores showed an increase of zero to 64 points, with an average of 25.1 points according to the American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society protocol. An increase of zero to 45 points, with the average of 14.6 points was observed using the Maryland Foot Scores, being 14 results classified as excellent (70%), five as effective (25%) and one as regular (5%).ConclusionThe Brostrõm?s technique therefore presents good results for the surgicaltreatment of chronic lateral instabilities of the ankle.
