Tightrope Surgical Repair for High Ankle Sprain Injuries - Tightrope surgical repair is a procedure gaining popularity in orthopedics and the sports medicine community. The Tightrope ankle repair procedure is used to treat high-ankle sprains (injuries to the ligamentous complex bridging the two leg bones, tibia and fibula, specifically where they articulate at the ankle joint). The procedure involves anatomically reducing the gap between the bones, drilling across the two bones, and placing a heavy non-absorbable suture construct with metallic buttons at either end (the “tightrope”) to hold the bones close together. This offers long-term protection and stability, and allows the ligamentous complex to heal in optimal position. The implanted device actually stabilizes the ankle and serves as a replacement ligament while the native syndesmotic ligaments heal. Tightrope surgery has been used to accelerate recovery from ankle sprains, and is gaining traction as a commonly used procedure in the orthopedic and sports medicine community. The procedure has offered athletes like University of Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, Georgia star TE Brock Bowers and others a quicker return to their game after ankle injuries. Tightrope surgery is a promising option for those who have suffered high-ankle sprains, and can help them recover faster and more effectively. #TightropeSurgery #HighAnkleSprains #ankleinjury
