Lateral ankle ligament reconstruction is a procedure performed to correct chronic ankle instability that has not responded to treatment such as physical therapy. Ankle instability occurs when ligaments are stretched or torn. A simple repair, known as the Bröstrom-Gould technique, tightens these ligaments to provide stability and allow for a return to sports.
