  • Title: Arthrography of the ankle. Value in diagnosis of rupture of the lateral ligaments.
    Author: Lindholmer E, Foged N, Jensen JT.
    Journal: Acta Radiol Diagn (Stockh); 1978; 19(4):585-98. PubMed ID: 717013.
    Abstract:
    Arthrography was performed in 105 cases with freshly sprained ankles and signs of rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament. They were subsequently operated upon. The arthrographic films were examined retrospectively to assess the value of different criteria for the differential diagnosis between rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament and combined rupture of this and the calcaneofibular ligament. The diagnostic value of arthrography was found to be high in isolated rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament, and is acceptable in the combined ruptures.
