Figure 2 Anatomic repair of the lateral ligamentous complex[54]. Illustration demonstrating anatomic repair of chronic lateral ankle instability. A: Broström anatomic repair, demonstrating midsubstance imbrication and suture of the ruptured ligament ends; B: Gould modification augmented with the mobilized lateral portion of the extensor retinaculum; C: Karlsson modification, which involves anchoring the proximal ligament ends through drill holes.
