    Author: Trevino SG, Davis P, Hecht PJ.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 1994 Jan; 25(1):1-16. PubMed ID: 8290222.
    Abstract:
    Acute and chronic lateral ligament injuries of the ankle represent a common but persistent problem to orthopedic specialists. A comprehensive physical examination and classification system were proposed as an approach to this problem. Guidelines for both conservative and surgical management for acute and chronic injuries are described. A comparison of the most common lateral ligament repairs is provided, with emphasis on the benefits of the so-called anatomic repair.
