  • Title: [Ambulatory operative treatment of fresh fibular ligament ruptures].
    Author: Hahn M, Stock HJ.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1985; 110(7):419-25. PubMed ID: 3890421.
    Abstract:
    Sudden accidental supination of the foot often causes the fibular ligament to be ruptured which is mostly mistaken for a sprained ankle and treated conservatively. From May 1977 to February 1984 we treated 431 cases of this kind surgically by suture of the ruptured ligament. Also in children suture of the ligament is indicated. The operation can be performed as an outpatient procedure.
