Initial assessment of severity of injury to the lateral ligament of the ankle is by clinical examination. If it is thought that there is a possibility of either lateral or anterior instability, patients are investigated radiologically by anterior and inversion stress films. If instability is demonstrated a peroneal tenogram is carried out to exclude damage to the calcaneo-fibular ligament. Treatment is by means of a cast brace if instability is present. The advantages of this are preservation of calf power and improved joint function. The early results are reported in relation to the improvement in stability and early return to sporting activity.
对踝关节外侧韧带损伤严重程度的初步评估通过临床检查进行。如果认为存在外侧或前侧不稳定的可能性，则通过前抽屉应力位片和内翻应力位片对患者进行放射学检查。如果证实存在不稳定，则进行腓骨肌腱造影以排除跟腓韧带损伤。如果存在不稳定，则采用石膏支具进行治疗。这样做的优点是保留小腿力量并改善关节功能。报告了有关稳定性改善和早期恢复体育活动的早期结果。
