In this era of cost containment it is so important to take an appropriate history and perform a comprehensive physical examination. She did an amazing job of systematically assessing the foot and ankle, much better than most orthopedic surgeons. By the way, this is fantastic video to review often and, especially, when preparing for board examinations.

If you could add a transcript of your explanation in the description of the video or down in the comments, it would be the icing of the cake for a great study material. Thanks a lot for sharing.

The one labelled as PTFL is actually Superior Peroneal Retinaculum and the actual PTFL should be a bit further at the back - attached to the Talus and fibula (not calcaneum and fibula).

In an acute injury setting, it is very difficult to clinically asses for OCD lesions. If there is high index of suspicion, as you suggested with three of the lateral ankle ligaments compromised, then its appropriate to obtain an MRI. Any ankle ankle sprain, especially that which is third degree, presenting with ecchymosis would benefit from assessment of the peroneal tendons. The incidence of concomitant peroneal pathology with grade 3 ankle sprain, especially those with chronic presentations, is highly reported in the literature.

A check for instability is imperative, anterior drawer is great, but you really have to get stress films with contralateral limb comparison.

Thanks once again for your useful lesson
