InternalBrace™ Augmentation and Knotless Treatment of Lateral Ankle Instability
Anish R. Kadakia, MD (Chicago, IL), reviews the biomechanical science and clinical evidence supporting the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation technique for lateral ankle instability.
The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
