Arthroscopic Anatomic Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair for Anterolateral Ankle Instability

Arthroscopic Anatomic Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair for Anterolateral Ankle Instability

Ankle instability is due to repetitive inversion injuries and is usually treated conservatively; however, after repeated sprains, chronic instability occurs and usually requires a surgical procedure. Recently, arthroscopic repair of a torn anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) has become more popular...

Recently, arthroscopic repair of a torn anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) has become more popular owing to its minimal invasiveness and high efficacy.
