ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of light walking combined with arthroscopic surgery on the efficacy and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) of patients with ankle arthritis. Methods 180 patients with ankle arthritis were retrospectively selected, who were divided into a control group (Group A) and an experimental group (Group B) according to treatment methods, with 90 patients in each group. Group A was treated with conventional open surgery and Group B was treated with light walking combined with arthroscopic surgery. The two groups were compared before and after treatment on scales such as the AOFAS ankle hindfoot score. Meanwhile, the patients' BMD and levels of inflammatory factors such as tumor cell necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were compared before and after treatment. Results The Kofoed and AOFAS scale scores were higher for mild walking combined with arthroscopic surgery than for conventional treatment (P < 0.05), and their pain visual analogue VAS scores were lower than for conventional treatment (P < 0.05). In Group B, the postoperative BMD increase was significantly higher (P < 0.05). The R-value between PDGF bone growth factor and BMD was 0.957 and the R-value between VEGF growth factor and BMD was 0.903. The R-value between patient age and BMD was -0.936 and the R-value between patient BMI and BMD was -0.913. The treatment efficiency in Group B was 96.7 %. Conclusion The results prove that light walking combined with arthroscopic surgery is suitable for the surgical treatment of patients with ankle arthritis because it has a better therapeutic effect and makes patients' BMD level improved.
