Different procedures for primary reconstruction of ruptured ligaments in fresh lateral ankle ligament injuries are reported. Selective local anesthsia of the nervus fibularis superficialis and suralis is considered a protective and low-risk method. In our opinion the primary surgical treatment of lateral ankle ligament ruptures is still the most adequate treatment, especially in sportsman.
