Bimalleolar fractures are continuity fractures involving the medial and lateral malleoli of the ankle. Bimalleolar fractures are common and account for a large proportion of lower limb trauma, ranking 3rd in terms of total skeletal fractures.

Produktbeschreibung
Bimalleolar fractures are continuity fractures involving the medial and lateral malleoli of the ankle. Bimalleolar fractures are common and account for a large proportion of lower limb trauma, ranking 3rd in terms of total skeletal fractures. The intertubercular form is the most frequently encountered, accompanied by more or less extensive lesions of the syndesmosis. Easy to diagnose, the choice of treatment is much less so, and is increasingly problematic both in terms of indication and results. The impact of syndesmosis on the function of the lower limb is a real issue, as it plays a vital role in daily, professional and leisure activities, especially as it affects young people. Surgical treatment is indicated from the outset if these fractures are displaced or are accompanied by an opening of the syndesmosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional and radiological results of bimalleolar intertubercular fractures treated surgically.
