Abstract
A prospective randomised study was performed in order to compare plaster cast with Pliton-80 cast brace with a mobile plastic shoe insert in the treatment of ruptured fibular ankle ligaments. The two treatment groups consisted of 65 patients in each and all were participating in the follow-up sixth month after the accident. There were no statistically significant differences in the overall results between the two treatment groups. Because 1) the mobile Pliton-80 bandage subjectively is more acceptable to the patients and - 2) the disability time in the Pliton-80 group was considerably shorter than in the plaster group - it was concluded that the mobile Pliton-80 bandage can be recommended as the treatmend of ruptures of the fibular ankle ligaments.
