ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To give a systematic overview of current diagnostic imaging options and surgical treatment for chronic subtalar joint instability.METHODS:
A systematic literature search across the following sources was performed PubMed, ScienceDirect, and SpringerLink. Twenty-three imaging studies and 19 outcome studies were included. The Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 (QUADAS 2) tool was used to assess the methodologic quality of the imaging articles, while the modified Coleman Score was used to assess the methodologic quality of the outcome studies.RESULTS:
Conventional radiographs were most frequently used to assess chronic subtalar joint instability. Talar tilt, anterior talar translation, and subtalar tilt were the three most commonly used measurement methods. Surgery often included calcaneofibular ligament reconstruction.CONCLUSION:
Current imaging options do not reliably predict subtalar joint instability. Distinction between chronic lateral ankle instability and subtalar joint instability remains challenging. Recognition of subtalar joint instability as an identifiable and treatable cause of ankle pain requires vigilant clinical investigation.
