title: [Substitution of the external malleolar ligament with a periosteal flap].
abstract: Substitution of lateral malleolar ligament with a periosteal flap Authors describe their operative procedure for chronic instability of the lateral malleolar ligament: substitution of this ligament with a periosteal flap. This operation is suitable, according to follow up examinations, both in isolated talofibular and talofibular-calcaneofibular ligamental deficiencies, for the stable restitution with good function of the talorural joint. The advantage of the operation is that less burden is imposed on the patient, the technique is relatively simple, and the need of instruments is minimal. Control examinations have shown very good or good results in the majority of 16-49 years old operated patients.
