JCPSP-JOURNAL OF THE COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS PAKISTAN(2021)
Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of anterior talofibular ligament injury. Eighty-two patients, diagnosed with anterior talofibular ligament injury by pathologicalexamination after operation, were included. MRI showed that there were 15 cases (18.29%) of complete rupture, 50 cases (60.98%) of tear and 12 cases (14.63%) of avulsion fracture. The accuracy of MRI in the diagnosis of anterior talofibular ligament injury was 93.90% (77 cases). Compared with the pathological examination after operation, the difference was statistically insignificant (p=0.059). The accuracy of MRI in the diagnosis of anterior talofibular ligament injury is high, and it has important clinical value in early diagnosis of anterior talofibular ligament injury.
