N2 - Over the years, possibilities in ankle arthroscopy have evolved from diagnostic inspection to complex interventional procedures. Further innovation may come from needle arthroscopy, which has improved substantially in image quality in recent years and can now be used for interventional procedures as well. We here present a standardized approach to wide-awake needle arthroscopy of the anterior ankle under local anesthesia. As new needle arthroscopic procedures of the ankle arise, this approach serves to help ensure safe, uniform, and beneficial adoption of this emergent technique.
