Epidemiology
The ankle joint is the body part that is the second most likely
to be injured in sport.
These bones form a relatively stable joint that is secured even more by a
number of strong, thick and flexible bands called ligaments.
Ligaments
There are three ligaments on the outside of the ankle that m

THE ANTERIOR TALOFIBULAR LIGAMEN

Risk factors
INTRINSIC RISK FACTORS
01 PREVIOUS SPRAIN
When the ligament distrupts it compromises an important biome
creates partial deafferentation of the ankle.
04 POSTURAL SWAY
Studies showed that an elevated postural-sway value identified a
risk of suffering an ankle sprain.

Treatment
Nonoperative management
• RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation).
• NSAIDS.
Indications:
• Grade I-III that continue to have pain and instability despite extensive nonoperati
• Grade I-III with a bony avulsion.
ARTHROSCOPY
Indications:
• recurrent ankle sprains and chronic pain caused by
impingement lesions.
• often used prior to reconstruction to evaluate for intra-
articular pathology.

Complications
STRETCH NEURAPRAXIA
Risk factors:
the most common cause of chronic pain is a missed injury, including
• missed fractures (anterior process of calcaneus, lateral or posterior
process of the talus, 5th metatarsal)
• osteochondral lesion
• injuries to the peroneal tendons
• injury to the syndesmosis
• tarsal coalition
• impingement syndromes
CASE
A 23-year-old female had a right ankle injury after landing
awkwardly catching a rebound in a basketball game. The next day
there was a swelling and ecchymosis in the lateral ankle. Anterior
drawer test showed 2 mm ankle translation. A radiograph was
performed but was normal. What is the next most appropriate step
in management?
B- Arthroscopy.
D- Steroid injection of the sinus tarsi and taping of the ankles before
activity.
CASE
In the AP of the ankle X- ray which one of the following is
considered a normal tibiofibular overlap:
A- A-< 10 mm
B- A-> 10 mm
C- A-< 4mm
D- A-> 4mm
