AB Despite  the  fact  that  the  ankle  complex  is  endowed  with  multiple  structural  supports,  it  is  the  most  commonly  injured  part  in  the  body.1  As  elsewhere,  injuries  to  this  area  can  be  either  microtraumatic  or  macrotraumatic.  Due  to  the  many  articulations,  ligament  and  muscular  attachments,  and  a  complex  biomechanical  arrangement,  obtaining  an  accurate  diagnosis  necessitates  a  thorough  knowledge  of  surface  anatomy  and  biomechanics  combined  with  the  findings  of  a  detailed  history  and  physical  examination.
