Functional and surgical anatomy of the lateral ankle.
Inversion ankle injuries resulting in soft tissue injury or various types of fractures are seen frequently by podiatrists, and diagnosis and evaluation of treatment require a thorough knowledge and understanding of the anatomy of the area. In this paper, the authors approach the anatomy from the point of view of surgical dissection, with emphasis on the soft tissue structures.
