✦ Synopsis

A follow-up study is presented of 27 patients with 29 ankles treated for disabling lateral instability by a modification of the Evans repair, previously described by Ottosson. The median follow-up period was 39 months. Excellent or good results were found in 93% of the ankles. We recommend this modification, as it is technically simple and efficient.
