[Treatment of acute lateral ankle ligament ruptures. A prospective 9-13-year follow-up study of three different therapies in 79 patients].

In a prospective study of 79 patients with arthrographically verified acute ruptured lateral ankle ligaments we have evaluated the long-term results of three different treatments: operation and walking-cast, walking-cast alone and elastic bandage. The average follow-up period was 11 (9-13) years, and 32 parameters concerning interview, clinical and radiographic examinations were statistically analysed. The three kinds of treatment were found to be equal, since only one parameter showed significant difference at a 5% level using Fisher's exact and the Mann-Whitney test, and no difference by using the Kruskal-Wallis test for homogeneity. Residual disabilities and late complications, such as instability, pain on activity, and the number of secondary ligament reconstructions and talocrural arthroses were low. It was concluded that nonoperative treatment provided adequate results even after a decade.
