The anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) is part of the lateral collateral ligament complex of the ankle. Its role is to stabilize the talus. It is also the weakest of the lateral collateral ankle ligaments.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S93. 492A became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S93.
Posterior talofibular ligament. The posterior talofibular ligament originates from the malleolar fossa, located on the medial surface of the lateral malleolus, coursing almost horizontally to insert in the posterolateral talus.
Sprain of ankle ICD-10-CM S93. 439A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
M25. 571 Pain in right ankle and joints of right foot - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Anatomy. The spring ligament fills the gap between the calcaneus and the navicular bone, it attaches from the sustentaculum tali of the calcaneus to the medial-plantar surface of the navicular.

These injuries often occur when running on uneven terrain, stepping in a hole, stepping on another athlete's foot during play or landing from a jump into an unbalanced position. When this happens the full force of the body's motion is placed on the anterior talofibular ligament.
The anterior talofibular ligament (also known as ATFL) is the most commonly injured ligament when the ankle is sprained on its outside or lateral aspect.
ICD-10 code M25. 572 for Pain in left ankle and joints of left foot is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Arthropathies .
M79. 672 Pain in left foot - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
The appropriate ICD-10 code is S93. 412S (sprain of calcaneofibular ligament of the left ankle, sequela).
The posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL) is rarely injured, except in association with a complete dislocation of the talus. Ligamentous injuries of the ankle are classified into the following 3 categories, depending on the extent of damage to the ligaments: Grade I is an injury without macroscopic tears.
The lateral ankle ligament complex consisting of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL), the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) and the posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL) is known to provide stability against ankle joint inversion.
The posterior talofibular ligament braces the talus posteriorly and helps to limit talar external rotation (or internal rotation of the tibia and fibula). The calcaneofibular ligament functions to prevent lateral talar tilt, principally when the ankle is in a neutral amount of plantar flexion and dorsiflexion.
After rupture of the anterior talofibular and the calcaneofibular ligaments, however, the short fibres of the posterior ligament restrict internal and external rotation, talar tilt, and dorsiflexion, while its long fibres inhibit only external rotation, talar tilt, and dorsiflexion.
