Abstract
Chronic lateral ankle instability is a common orthopaedic problem. The continuous stress applied by the lateral instability may affect the superficial deltoid ligament. The combination of lateral ankle instability and injury to the most anterior fascicles of the deltoid ligament contributes to rotational ankle instability. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of arthroscopic deltoid ligament reconstruction in rotational ankle instability. This minimally invasive approach allows other associated lesions to be detected and managed arthroscopically.
