Dr. Moore Explains Ankle Ligament Repair and Reinforcement Using the 'Arthrex' Internal Brace

In this video, Dr Moore explains how the Arthrex Internal Brace is designed to reinforce the anterior talofibular ligament after the 'Modified Brostrom' procedure.

Most foot and ankle specialists will perform a ligament repair surgery like the 'Modified Brostrom' if the patient has had frequent ankle sprains, ankle instability or the quintessential 'weak ankle' or ankle 'giving out'. Tests include the initial x-rays, MRI, and 'anterior drawer sign' at the clinical evaluation pre operatively.

The high points of this surgical equipment are the bone anchors that are offered as an absorbable material and insert 'peek' material. The drills are cannulated for ease of use and maintaining position of the portals and hand held taps and drivers are as easy to use as they are intelligently designed for each part of the procedure. Finally, the brace material itself is made of fiber wire at 5 times the standard strength.
