Case Report Beware the "simple" Fibular Fracture (a Clue for Severe Unstable Ankle Injury)
The ankle is a common site of sport injuries. These usually have their main manifestations at the ankle joint and are thus easily recognised. However, unstable ligamentous ankle injuries may be associated with a fracture of the proximal fibula which can dominate the clinical picture. This severe uncommon injury complex, known as Maisonneuve fracture, is easily missed and maltreated (Pankovich, ...
متن کاملFatigue Fracture of the Fibula
Fatigue, or stress, fractures have been described as occurring in many situations and at widely differing ages from 15 months to 64 years. Most have occurred in young adults, particularly soldiers in training and athletes. Although fatigue fractures usually occur in weight-bearing bones, in particular the metatarsals and tibia, they also occur in the fibula, and have even been described in the ...

متن کاملManagement of syndesmotic injuries: What is the evidence?
Ankle fractures are accompanied by a syndesmotic injury in about 10% of operatively treated ankle fractures. Usually, the total rupture of the syndesmotic ligaments with an external rotation force is associated with a Weber type B or C fracture or a Maisonneuve fracture. The clinical assessment should consist of a comprehensive history including mechanism of injury followed by a specific physic...
متن کاملPedicled Retrograde Fibula Flap for Ankle Reconstruction after Oncologic Resection of the Distal Fibula
1 Sir: D of the distal fibula can result in ankle instability.1 Ankle reconstruction for defects involving the distal fibula include arthrodesis, nonvascularized autografts, and free flaps.2 Pedicled flaps have some advantages over free flaps, including decreased operative time and decreased postoperative complications.3 Pedicled retrograde fibula flaps have been previously described for tibial...
