Table 3 Distances of the bony landmarkers to the Fibular tip, FOT (Fibular obscure tubercle), and AFT (Anterior Fibular Tubercle), referenced from previously studies

From: The lowest point of fibula (LPF) could be used as a reliable bony landmark for arthroscopic anchor placement of lateral ankle ligaments ----compared with open Broström procedure
