Video Summary
Dr. Ryan Nussbaum, a sports medicine physician, discusses using ultrasound to evaluate high ankle sprains, focusing on the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL). He explains normal and pathological ultrasound appearances, emphasizing viewing the AITFL in both long and short axes. Signs of pathology include heterogeneous texture, potential hematomas, and vascularization. A case of a 15-year-old football player with a high ankle sprain is reviewed, highlighting ultrasound's role in diagnosing AITFL disruptions. The presentation underscores ultrasound's effectiveness as a screening tool for acute ankle injuries, complementing MRI findings.
