Broström procedure

The Broström procedure is a surgical technique used to repair ankle ligaments that are often injured during activities like sports. It specifically targets the lateral ligaments on the outside of the ankle, which can become stretched or torn, leading to instability. During the procedure, the surgeon reattaches the ligaments to the bone and tightens them to restore stability to the ankle. This helps patients recover more effectively, reducing the risk of future sprains and enhancing their ability to return to physical activities.
