Summary

This study looked at 58 adults with chronic ankle instability who needed surgery to repair a torn ligament. Some received the standard repair alone, while others also got an Artelon FLEXBAND device to support the repair. The goal was to see if the device helped people return to their normal activities sooner and with fewer complications. Participants were followed for up to two years after surgery.
