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 posterior talofibular ligament is a ligament that connects the fibula to the talus bone. It runs almost horizontally from the malleolar fossa of the lateral malleolus of the fibula to the lateral tubercle on the posterior surface of the talus.
Partial tears occur when the main ligament on the outside of the ankle (ATFL-anterior talofibular ligament), stretches beyond its elastic limits and partially tears. Patients will have slightly more swelling and pain when they begin to weightbear. Discoloration may develop within 24 hours.
The anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament is a flat, strong ligament (Figure 1). It originates from the longitudinal tubercle on the anterior aspect of the lateral malleolus, and the fibers course superiorly and medially, attaching on the anterolateral tubercle of the tibia.
As the posterior talofibular ligament has no independent stabilizing function in the intact ankle joint, an isolated rupture of this ligament is unlikely.
ankleThe weakest and most commonly injured ligament in the ankle is the anterior talofibular ligament. This is a lateral ligament, which means it consists of a band of connective tissue and is located on the outside of the ankle.
The posterior tibiofibular ligament is a fibrous band of connective tissue that travels horizontally over the rear surface of the tibiofibular syndesmosis, which is a meeting area of the fibula (calf bone) and the tibia (shinbone) that is composed of the interosseus membrane and both the interosseous and anterior ...

A sprained ankle is the stretching or tearing of ankle ligaments, which support the joint by connecting bones to each other. A sprain occurs when your ankle is forced to move out of its normal position, which can cause one or more of the ankle's ligaments to stretch, partially tear or tear completely.
The most common and significant ligament tears include tears in the Anterior TaloFibular Ligament (ATFL), CalcaneoFibular Ligament (CFL), and the large Deltoid ligament complex.
