Dr. Downey Demonstrates Tips and Pearls for Ankle Instability: Talar Guide Placement

Michael W. Downey, DPM (Fort Worth, TX), demonstrates talar guide placement to help improve the accuracy of the talar anchor’s location during the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation procedure for ankle instability treatment.

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.
