Abstract Background Tibial shaft fractures (TSFs) combined with occult posterior malleolar
fractures (PMFs) are becoming widely recognized in the field of orthopedics. The purpose of …

Objectives: To (1) evaluate the incidence of posterior malleolar fractures (PMFs) in patients
with tibial shaft fractures (TSFs) using advanced imaging;(2) identify predictors for patients at …

Objective: To define the pathoanatomy of the posterior malleolus fracture associated with a
spiral distal tibia fracture to guide clamp and implant placement when treating these …

Objectives: To investigate the incidence of concomitant posterior malleolar fractures (PMFs)
in operative, distal-third, spiral tibia fractures. Design: Prospective protocol with retrospective …

Objective: To compare posterior malleolar fracture morphology in ankle fractures compared
with those with tibial shaft fractures. Setting: Level 1 trauma center. Design: Retrospective …

Purpose Tibial shaft spiral fractures and fractures of the distal third of the tibia (AO: 42A/B/C
and 43A) frequently occur with non-displaced posterior malleolus fractures (PM). This study …

Background The association of tibial shaft fractures (TSFs) with posterior malleolar fractures
is well described. The purpose of this study was to identify specific radiographic parameters …

Objectives: To identify the incidence of distal articular fractures in a series of distal third tibia
shaft fractures and to report the utility of both computed tomography (CT) scans and …

Objective Spiral fracture of tibia combined with posterior malleolar fracture (PMF) is a special
and regular injury. There is no uniform fixation method for PMF in this kind of injury …

In the last decades, the literature has demonstrated a renewed interest in finding quantitative
and non-invasive techniques for the assessment of bone fractures, by replacing X-ray …
