Arthroscopic anatomic lateral ligament reconstruction of the ankle joint has proven to be a safe option in the treatment of chronic ankle instability (CAI), with good functional results as well as allowing simultaneous management of associated lesions. We described an arthroscopic technique for anatomic reconstruction of the anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament using only 2 arthroscopic portals. This surgical technique to treat CAI is technically less demanding than other described techniques that use 3 or 4 arthroscopic portals. Moreover, as an anatomic technique, it has the advantage of preserving the biomechanics and kinematics of the ankle joint.
