Anterior Talo-Fibular Ligament Tensile Properties Compared to Suture Tape, Allograft, and Copolymer Augmentation Elements: An Isolated Biomechanical Study

Anterior Talo-Fibular Ligament Tensile Properties Compared to Suture Tape, Allograft, and Copolymer Augmentation Elements: An Isolated Biomechanical Study

Introduction/Purpose: The modified Brostrom-Gould (MB) technique incorporates the inferior extensor retinaculum for added strength of anatomic Anterior Talo-Fibular Ligament (ATFL) repair. A major limitation of the MB technique is the inability to restore native ATFL biomechanics. Surgical augmentat...
