Abstract

Ankle sprains are frequent injuries among athletes and the general population, making them one of the most prevalent sports-related
injuries. While most lateral ankle ligament injuries typically respond well to conservative treatment, a significant portion evolves into
chronic lateral ankle instability, which may require surgical intervention. Recently, new anatomical insights regarding the lateral ankle
ligaments have emerged, enhancing the advancement of innovative diagnostic and treatment approaches. The objective of this article
was to discuss the latest trends in lateral ankle instability. Level of evidence V; Expert opinion.
