Trimalleolar Ankle Fracture: Posterior Plate for Posterior Malleolus FracturesTrimalleolar ankle fractures with a posterior malleolus component are typically the result of a low-energy mechanism of injury. There is continued debate on indications for fixing the posterior malleolus and optimal fixation ...

Any external rotation type mechanism should heighten the physician's awareness to a syndesmotic injury. When excessive external rotation of the talus occurs disruption of the medial deltoid ligaments must intuitively take place. The mechanism and movement of the talus suggests tearing and disruption ...
Methods: A total of 193 patients with a trimalleolar ankle fracture treated between 2011 and 2020 were included. Patient registries were reviewed regarding demographics, mechanism, and type of injury. The CBTT was assessed in radiographs and CT images. The FRAX score was calculated to estimate ...
The primary goal of this study was to analyse the patient characteristics, mechanism of injury and the cortical bone thickness of the distal tibia in trimalleolar ankle fractures. 2. Materials and Methods A retrospective analysis of patients treated for a trimalleolar ankle fracture between 2011 and...
