Anterior drawer test, tests for... - correct answer ✔Stability of the ATFL
(anterior talofibular ligament ), which are lateral ligaments on the ankle that
prevents the foot from sliding forward in relation to the shin.


Special test: Anterior drawer test - correct answer ✔Stabilize lower leg with
non-dominant hand. Cup heel in dominant hand and pull anteriorly. Test in 20
degrees of plantar flexion.

, Talar tilt test, tests for... - correct answer ✔Stability of the CFL
(calcaneofibular ligament).


It is a narrow, rounded cord, running from the tip of the lateral malleolus of the
fibula downward and slightly backward to a tubercle on the lateral surface of
the calcaneus. It is part of the lateral collateral ligament, which *opposes the
hyperinversion* of the subtalar joint, as in a common type of ankle sprain.


Special test: Talar tilt - correct answer ✔Stabilize lower leg with non-
dominant hand. Cup heel in dominant hand and invert the foot.


Squeeze test, tests for... - correct answer ✔Integrity of the syndesmosis (the
point just above the ankle where the tibia and fibula meet, which is a joint by
definition. But, there is very little motion between the two bones. Provides
stability to the ankle joint and allow motion of the joint).


Ex: The high ankle sprain that is commonly seen in football players refers to
an injury to the syndesmosis.


Think: Squeeze begins w/ S like syndesmosis


Special test: Squeeze test - correct answer ✔Examiner cups his/her hands
behind the tibia & fibula, away from the site of pain. Examiner compresses the
tibia & fibula, gradually adding more pressure


Sprain - correct answer ✔Injury to the ligaments (bones to bones) around a
joint. Most common area is the ankle.
