title: [Therapy for recent and old injuries of the fibular capsular ligament in the ankle joint].
abstract: Fresh injuries of the fibular capsule-ligament-complex in the age in which physical competition takes place must be treated surgically. To achieve optimal postoperative results, the different forms of ruptures of the fibular ligaments must be treated in a differentiated way. A reconstruction of the Lig. talofibulare anterius generally succeeds without trouble, whereas a reconstruction of the Lig. calcaneofibulare often requires a plastic replacement by a periostal flap. At old ruptures, however, the tendon plastic is the safest way of reconstructing the stability of the ankle. The distally stalked tendon graft has several advantages, especially when the graft is attached in accordance with the anatomy of the fibular ligaments.
