Ankle surgery showdown: which implant gets you back on your feet faster?

NCT ID NCT05729542

Summary

This study is comparing two different surgical implants used to repair a severe type of ankle ligament injury that often happens with a broken ankle. Researchers want to find out if one method (a suture button) leads to better recovery than the other (a Fibulink implant). They will measure things like pain levels, ankle function, and how quickly people can return to normal activities after surgery.
