In the past several years, arthroscopic repair of the lateral ankle ligaments has grown because it has shown comparable results with the traditional open Brostrom-Gould procedure. In addition, arthroscopic repair allows reduced swelling and cosmesis. This article discusses the authors' technique for lateral ankle instability, with published data supporting biomechanical equivalency to the standard open Brostrom-Gould procedure. An optional internal brace can provide further strength to the repair and lead to a quicker recovery. Arthroscopic repair both with and without the internal brace have shown positive clinical outcomes for patients as well as high satisfaction rates.
