unimalleolar ankle fracture Lateral Malleolus only supination external rotation ser 4
2018Co-Authors: Toni M. Mclaurin, Abhishek GantaAbstract:A 64-year-old female with well-controlled type II diabetes sustained an injury to her right ankle when she slipped and fell on ice. She noted immediate right ankle pain and deformity, was unable to bear weight, and had diffuse swelling and ecchymosis throughout her ankle and tenderness to palpation over the Lateral Malleolus with no tenderness medially. Radiographs showed a long oblique Lateral Malleolus fracture at the level of the syndesmosis with a comminuted posterior Malleolus fracture involving less than 10% of the articular surface and an incongruent tibiotalar joint with Lateral subluxation of the talus seen on the mortise view. She was diagnosed with a Lauge-Hansen supination external rotation IV ankle fracture (SER IV) and underwent open reduction and internal fixation of this injury using lag-screw fixation and neutralization plating of the fibula with placement of a syndesmotic screw.

Reconstruction of Compound Loss of Lateral Malleolus and Lateral Ankle Ligaments with Double-Bundle Achilles Tendon–Bone Allograft
Journal of Foot & Ankle Surgery, 2014Co-Authors: Hong-geun Jung, Hyeung-june Kim, Seung-han Cha, Kyoungmo NamAbstract:Open ankle fracture, including compound loss of the Lateral Malleolus, Lateral ankle ligaments, and overlying skin, is a severe injury and can result in ankle instability and permanent disability. Treatment of this injury is challenging and requires bone grafting and soft tissue reconstruction. In the present report, we describe a unique reconstruction technique for compound loss of the Lateral Malleolus, Lateral ankle ligaments, and the overlying skin using a double-bundle Achilles tendon–bone allograft combined with a reverse sural fasciocutaneous flap. The patient obtained a stable ankle with nearly full range of motion and displayed satisfactory function during the follow-up period.

Neutralization versus Compression Plate on Lateral Malleolus Fracture: Is Lag Screw Necessary?
Open Journal of Orthopedics, 2019Co-Authors: Ahmet Oztermeli, Sinan Karaca, Fırat Fidan, Özgün KarakuşAbstract:Introduction: Our aim was to compare clinical and radiological results of Lateral Malleolus fracture treated with neutralization and compression plate. Material and Methods: 54 patients with isolated Lateral Malleolus fractures treated between March 2012 and April 2015 at Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital were evaluated with the Ankle-Hindfoot Scale of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score (excellent, ≥90; good, 75 - 89; acceptable, 50 - 74; poor,

Material and Methods: 54 patients with isolated Lateral Malleolus fractures treated between March 2012 and April 2015 at Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital were evaluated with the Ankle-Hindfoot Scale of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score (excellent, ≥90; good, 75 - 89; acceptable, 50 - 74; poor, <50); patient satisfactory score (PSS) (0, very unhappy; 10, very happy) and weight-bearing walking based a visual analogue scale (VAS) (0, pain-free; 10, the most unbearable pain). The union of the fractures also evaluated. Results: There was no significant change in AOFAS, VAS, PSS and the union rates between two plating techniques. Conclusion: Similar results have shown both of two plating techniques were successful treating isolated Lateral Malleolus fracture.

Reconstruction of the Lateral Malleolus using a reverse-flow vascularized fibular head: a case report.
Microsurgery, 1998Co-Authors: Nebojsa Rajacic, Hussain DashtiAbstract:We report a case of a 7-year-old girl in whom a vascularized fibular head with preserved epiphyseal and metaphyseal blood supply was used to reconstruct the missing Lateral Malleolus. Two-year follow-up showed good bony stability and growth potential of the transplanted epiphyseal plate.
