BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the incidence of adverse events in elderly patients who required inpatient admission after sustaining an ankle fracture and to consider these data in relation to geriatric hip fracture and other geriatric patient admissions. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of patients admitted with an ankle fracture, a hip fracture, or any other diagnos...
OBJECTIVES Foot and ankle injuries that result in sprains or fractures are commonly encountered at the emergency department. The purpose of the present study is to find out the accuracy of ultrasound (US) scanning in injuries in the aforementioned areas. METHODS Ottawa Ankle Rules-positive patients older than 16 years who presented to the emergency department with foot or ankle injuries were ...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous national epidemiological data on the characteristics and trends of patients with ankle fractures have been limited. We therefore analyzed data on Swedish inpatients with ankle fractures in this nationwide population study, based on data from 1987 through 2004. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data on all inpatients aged 15 years and older with ankle fracture were extracted...
Pediatric ankle fractures account for approximately 5% of pediatric fractures and 15% of physeal injuries. The biomechanical differences between mature and immature bones, as well as the differing forces applied to those bones, help explain the differences between adult and pediatric fractures. The potential complications associated with pediatric ankle fractures include those seen with adult f...
Between 1992 and 2000, 57 patients with 57 isolated fractures of the medial malleolus were treated conservatively by immobilisation in a cast. The results were assessed by examination, radiography and completion of the short form-36 questionnaire and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle-hindfoot score. Of the 57 fractures 55 healed without further treatment. The mean combined dorsi...
BACKGROUND An anatomical reconstruction of the ankle congruity is the important prerequisite in the operative treatment of acute ankle fractures. Despite anatomic restoration patients regularly suffer from residual symptoms after these fractures. There is growing evidence, that a poor outcome is related to the concomitant traumatic intra-articular pathology. By supplementary ankle arthroscopy a...
OBJECTIVES Does ankle aspiration help with pain control in patients with ankle fractures? DESIGN Prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. SETTING Level 1 Academic Medical Center. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS Consecutive skeletally mature patients with ankle fractures. INTERVENTION Randomized between ankle aspiration and sham procedure. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS Pain s...
Fractures of the lateral process of the talus are frequently missed at initial evaluation in the emergency room because the symptoms are similar to those seen in the ubiquitous inversion ankle sprain.1-3 Mills and Horne reviewed 39 lateral process fractures in 5 different series and revealed that only 59% were correctly diagnosed.3 For that reason, understanding the mechanism of the sustained i...
INTRODUCTION We aimed to assess the incidence and hospitalization rate of hip and "minor" fragility fractures in the Italian population. METHODS We carried out a 3-year survey at 10 major Italian emergency departments to evaluate the hospitalization rate of hip, forearm, humeral, ankle, and vertebral fragility fractures in people 45 years or older between 2004 and 2006, both men and women. Th...
Stress fractures occur due to repetitive forces on the bones and develop over time. The etiology differs from a traumatic fracture and therefore stress fractures are more an overload injury. Stress fractures of the foot and ankle are frequently seen in athletes and can be a potentially career ending injury for these high demanding sportsmen. Some locations are considered as high‐risk stress fra...
