1.- To ilustrate the normal sonoanatomy of the structures that can be injured in a lateral ankle sprain. 2.- To propose a systematic scanning technique for the evaluation of such structures. 3.-To describe the most important bone and soft-tissue lesions associated to a lateral ankle sprain.  

Normal sonoanatomy: Lateral ligament complex. Peroneal tendons. Superior ankle retinaculum. Extensor digitorum brevis muscle. Tibiofibular syndesmosis. Ankle and hindfoot joints. Most frequent sequelae of ankle sprain: Lateral ligament complex rupture. Peroneal tendons instability or tenosynovitis. Extensor digitorum brevis muscle avulsion. Anterior syndesmosis sprain. Occult fractures. Dynamic scanning technique.
