Schuurman W et al. - A 64-year-old patient presented with a solitary osseous metastasis of the renal cell carcinoma. The localization of the metastasis in the distal fibula is rare. A distal fibulectomy was performed, and the lateral ankle ligaments were reconstructed using a patellar bone-tendon-bone allograft. Postoperatively the ankle was immobilized in plaster, followed by mobilization with an ankle brace. One year postoperatively the result was good. The ascribed method is a new and elegant way of reconstruction of the lateral ankle ligaments after distal fibulectomy.
