Talar Tilt Test on Ankle Examination

The talar tilt test assesses for both anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament stability.
With the foot slightly plantarfiexed, brace the heel and invert the foot.
Repeat on the opposite side and compare degrees of inversion.
Inversion of more than twenty three degrees or more than five degree difference, is a positive test and indicative of anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligament injury.
