Nineteen of the author's 20 patients recovered fully from a ruptured anterior talofibular ligament when it was repaired or replaced by a tendon graft from one-half of the peroneus brevis tendon. The patients wore a below-the-knee weight-bearing cast for 3 to 4 weeks after the surgery and none of the patients had residual instability.
