[Surgical treatment of instability of the ankle joint caused by inveterate injuries of the ligaments of the lateral malleolus].

The results of surgical Chrisman-Snook reconstruction of the lateral malleolus ligaments in 9 patients, aged 19-37 years, have been discussed. The follow-up ranged from 2 to 4 years. In all the patients, good functional results were obtained. Among many methods of reconstruction of the lateral malleolus ligaments, the Chrisman-Snook method distinguishes itself because of simplicity of procedure and furthermore, it can be used for reconstruction of injuries of the tarsus ligaments in the region of the malleolus. It can be recommended in the treatment of patients with the symptoms of instability of the talocrural joint.
