Foot and Ankle OTIF: How the InternalBrace™ Surgical Technique Has Affected a Military Population. A Review of Published Literature

Kevin D. Martin, DO (Columbus, OH), discusses his published study on the surgical technique for lateral ligament repair in lateral ankle instability and its impact on the military personnel he has treated.

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.
