Medial ankle instability

Abstract

While much is known about the anatomy and biomechanics of lateral ankle ligaments, the medial ankle ligaments are still poorly understood. Analogously, very little objective data is available regarding the clinical presentation of medial ankle instability. The focus of this article is to elucidate the anatomy and function of the medial ligaments, and to present our experience for diagnosis and treatment of incompetent deltoid ligament.
