Operative Treatment of Posterior Malleolar Fractures
Fractures of the posterior malleolus can occur in conjunction with fibular and medial malleolar fractures or in isolation. The indications for fixation of the posterior malleolus remain controversial except for the fragment sizes. A number of different surgical approaches and techniques for internal fixation of posterior malleolar fractures have been reported. Newer techniques such as direct ex...
متن کاملPosterior Malleolar Fractures
Posterior malleolar fractures are a common component of ankle fractures. Between 7 and 44% of all ankle fractures involve the posterior malleolus (1). This type of fracture often arises from rotational injury and rarely occurs in isolation. The morphology of the fracture can be variable. A secondary type of posterior malleolar fracture is the posterior pilon variant. This involves a majority of...
متن کاملModern Operative Treatment of Malleolar Fractures and Associated Consequences (Review)
The review covers the current state of the problem of operative treatment of malleolar fractures and the associated consequences. Various methods used in osteosynthesis of the malleolus were analyzed. The main criteria of the favorable arrangement of the fractured bone fragments for malleolus reposition are identified. Methods for recovery of the ligamentous apparatus of the ankle joint are des...
متن کاملThe Treatment and Outcomes of Medial Malleolar Stress Fractures
CONTEXT The medial malleolus is considered a high-risk stress fracture and can be debilitating to the highly active or athletic populations. A range of treatment methods have been described with varying outcomes. Currently, there is no gold standard treatment option with optimal results described. OBJECTIVE A systematic search of the literature to determine treatment options and outcomes in m...
متن کاملComparison of the direct and indirect reduction techniques during the surgical management of posterior malleolar fractures
BACKGROUND The optimal method for the reduction and fixation of posterior malleolar fracture (PMF) remains inconclusive. Currently, both of the indirect and direct reduction techniques are widely used. We aimed to compare the reduction quality and clinical outcome of posterior malleolar fracture managed with the direct reduction technique through posterolateral approach or the indirect reductio...
