The contribution of Lauge-Hansen to the understanding and treatment of ankle fractures cannot be underestimated, an unquestionable merit being the analysis of the ligamentous component of these injuries that are considered as equivalent to the respective malleolar fractures. In numerous clinical and biomechanical studies, the lateral ankle ligaments are ruptured either together with or instead of the syndesmotic ligaments, as predicted by the Lauge-Hansen stages. A ligament-based view on malleolar fractures may deepen the understanding of the mechanism of injury and lead to a stability-based evaluation and treatment of the 4 osteoligamentous pillars (malleoli) at the ankle.
