Case description

In this ankle surgery video, Dr Moore demonstrates how to reinforce the anterior talofibular ligament after the Modified Brostrom procedure.
Most foot and ankle specialists will perform a ligament repair surgery like the Modified Brostrom if the patient has had frequent ankle sprains, ankle instability or the quintessential 'weak ankle' or ankle 'giving out'. Tests include the initial x-rays, MRI, and 'anterior drawer sign' at the clinical evaluation pre operatively.
