Objectives Whether or not and how to fixate the posterior malleolus fracture seems to
depend on the fracture fragment size and its amount of dislocation, but clear guidelines for …

Introduction The presence of a posterior malleolar (PM) fragment has a negative prognostic
impact in ankle fractures. The best treatment is still subject to debate. The aim of this study …

Background The fixation methods of posterior malleolar fracture (PMF) in trimalleolar ankle
fractures is still controversial. We aim to compare clinical and radiological outcomes …

Background This study explores the latest epidemiological characteristics of posterior
malleolus fracture and compares the epidemiological differences of posterior malleolus …

Introduction Complex ankle fractures frequently involve the posterior malleolus. Many
classifications describing posterior malleolar fractures (PMF) exist. The aim of this study was …

Background Treatment of posterior malleolar fracture with plate or screw fixation is still
controversial. Plate fixation is considered to have better stability but more soft tissue …

Abstract Background The Tibialis Posterior tendon (TPT) is the only tendon to encounter the
distal tibia and is therefore at greatest risk of injury in fractures of the distal tibia. Although …

Background We aimed to evaluate radiologic and clinical outcomes of ankle fractures
involving posterior fragments that were fixed with a posterior plate by the posterolateral …

ABSTRACT PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The purpose of this study was to evaluate if the
fixation method of a posterior fragment in trimalleolar ankle fractures affects the surgical …
