Lateral Ankle Sprains and
Chronic Ankle Instability
Normal Anatomy
• Lateral ankle ligament complex consists of
• Anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL)
• Calcaneofibular ligament (CFL)
• Posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL)
• ATFL blends with the ankle capsule, from
anteroinferior margin of fibula to lateral
margin of talus
• CFL is from the inferior margin of the
fibular, distal to the ATFL and runs
underneath the peroneal tendons to the
lateral tubercle of the calcaneus
• PTFL is a thickening of the capsule from
the posterior fibula to the lateral tubercle
of the posterior process of the talus
• ATFL stress in plantarflexion
Lateral Ankle Sprain
Pathology
• Lateral Ankle Sprain
• An episode of acute
inversion/supination injury of the
ankle associated with swelling,
lateral ankle pain and difficulty
weight bearing
Mechanism of Injury
• Traumatic
• Foot and ankle inversion of a
plantar-flexed or internally rotated
foot
• External rotation of the lower leg
with respect of the ankle
Risk Factors
• Intrinsic
• Reduced invertors and evertors
strength
• Reduced proprioception
• Reduced balance
• Reduced dorsiflexion range of
movement
• Lower limb mal alignment
• Extrinsic
• Previous lateral ligament sprain
• Twisting, pivoting sports
• Contact sport
• Playing on artificial grass
Classification
• Grade 1
• Mild
• Painful
• Minimal ligament tearing
• Grade 2
• Moderate
• Painful
• Significant ligament tearing
• Grade 3
• Severe
• Sometimes not painful
• Complete ligament rupture
Subjective Examination
• History of:
• Foot and ankle inversion of a plantar-flexed foot
• External rotation of the lower leg with respect of the ankle
• Swelling (immediate suggests rupture more likely)
• Maybe unable to continue to play
Objective Examination
• Haematoma
• Pain on palpation lateral
ligaments
• Abnormal anterior drawer test
• Pain on palpation of the medial
malleolus is not unlikely
• Delayed physical exam (4-5 days)
gives better diagnosis
• Reduced proprioception
Ottawa Ankle Rules
Special Test
• Anterior drawer test
Further Investigation
• X-ray (rule out fracture)
• Ultrasound
• MRI
Management
• Conservative management always explored
• Reduce swelling initially although swelling may never go completely
• Emphasis on prevention of future injury
• Emphasis on proprioception and dynamic stability
Conservative
• Reduce pain and inflammation
•
•
•
•
Immobilisation
NSAID’s
Ice
Massage
• Restore Normal Range of Movement
• Ankle
• Massage
• Joint mobilisation
• Joint manipulation
• Restore Normal Muscle Activation
•
•
•
•
•
Evertors
Invertors
Plantarflexors
Dorsiflexors
Intrinsic Foot Muscles
• Restore Dynamic Stability
• Proprioceptive Training
• Sport Specific Training
Plan B
• Soft tissue repair
• Ligament Reconstruction
Chronic Ankle Instability
Pathology
• Chronic Ankle Instability
• The perception by the patient of
an abnormal ankle with a
combination of symptoms
Mechanism of Injury
• Insidious
• Intrinsic
• Reduced invertor and evertor
strength
• Reduced proprioception
• Reduced balance
• Ligament laxity
• Lower limb mal alignment
• Extrinsic
• Previous or repeated lateral
ligament sprain
Classification
• Functional Ankle Instability
• Instability due to proprioceptive
deficits, neuromuscular deficits,
postural control deficits and
muscle weakness
• Mechanical Ankle Instability
• Instability due to ligament laxity
Subjective Examination
• History of multiple sprains
• Feeling of unstable ankle
• Regular giving way
Objective Examination
• Reduced proprioception
• Weakness ankle evertors
• Tenderness palpation lateral
ligaments
• Instability on anterior drawer
test
Special Test
• Anterior drawer test
Further Investigation
• X-ray (rule out fracture)
• Ultrasound
• MRI
Management
• Conservative management useful but not always successful
• Large emphasis on restoring neuromuscular control and strength
• Manual therapy can be used if acute sprain is present but general
manual therapy is not useful
Conservative
• Restore Normal Muscle
Activation
•
•
•
•
•
Evertors
Invertors
Plantarflexors
Dorsiflexors
Intrinsic Foot Muscles
• Restore Strength
• Entire kinetic chain
• Restore Dynamic Stability
• Proprioceptive Training
• Sport Specific Training
Plan B
• Soft tissue repair
• Ligament Reconstruction
