Reconstruction for lateral instability of the ankle
HF Riegler
Lateral instability of the ankle in a young athlete is often very
disabling. When conservative management of this instability fails, a
surgical procedure described by Chrisman and Snook reconstructs both the
anterior fibulotalar and fibulocalcaneal ligaments. In eleven patients who
were followed for more than two years, this procedure gave predictably good
results. Return to full sports activities can be expected for the young
athlete.
