This paper aims to establish a ranking of the 50 most cited research articles pertaining to ankle surgery in the field of orthopaedics. In addition, the demographic features such as the date of publications, location of primary author and country of the publisher were all analysed. Studies similar to these have been completed in other subspecialties, however we were not able to find studies relevant to ankle surgery. The Web of Science Cor Collection Database was utilised to identify the target articles. The most cited article was cited 394 times and the least was cited 120 times, and the majority of articles were published in the United States of America. This research will benefit the scientific community in identifying popular research topics, identifying lacking fields and identifying key hubs in the field of ankle surgery.
本文旨在对骨科领域中关于踝关节手术的50篇被引用次数最多的研究文章进行排名。此外，还分析了诸如发表日期、第一作者所在地和出版国等人口统计学特征。其他亚专业领域已完成类似研究，但我们未能找到与踝关节手术相关的研究。利用科学网核心合集数据库来确定目标文章。被引用次数最多的文章被引用了394次，最少的被引用了120次，且大多数文章发表于美国。这项研究将有助于科学界识别热门研究主题、找出研究空白领域以及确定踝关节手术领域的关键核心。
