Anterior Drawer – Ankle (ATFL)

This video demonstrates the Anterior drawer test for the ankle.  This tests the integrity of the Anterior Talo-Fibular Ligament (ATFL).  Place the heel in the palm, and allow the bottom of the foot to rest on your forearm.  Then you use a combination of MCP flexion and pulling forward to stress the ATFL.  The amount of laxity (especially in comparison to the opposite site) is an indication of the amount of injury to the ATFL.
