DOI: 10.1016/j.fcl.2021.03.009
Abstract: The most common injury mechanism for ankle fractures with concomitant deltoid ligament injury is a supination external rotation type 4 trauma. In the acute setting, malalignment, ecchymosis, and profound edema of the affected ankle can… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2018.11.006
Abstract: Deltoid ligament reconstruction following type B ankle fractures continues to generate a vivid discussion amongst trauma surgeons. There is a difference of opinion as to whether operative or non operative treatment should prevail. We therefore… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/bot.0000000000000817
Abstract: Introduction: External rotation and gravity stress radiographs have been described to distinguish stable supination-external rotation-II (SER-II) ankle fractures from unstable SER-IV fractures. It has been previously shown that both external rotation and gravity stress views… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2020/2043015
Abstract: Background The necessity of the deep deltoid ligament repair in the treatment of supination-external rotation (SER) ankle stage IV fracture with deltoid ligament rupture is highly debated. We conducted this retrospective research aimed at exploring… read more here.

DOI: 10.1503/cjs.020320
Abstract: Background: Deltoid ligament repair (DLR) was historically a common adjunct to ankle fracture fixation; however, prevailing clinical practice is to explore the medial side of the ankle only if reduction is blocked. We performed a… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2023.976181
Abstract: Purpose Ankle fracture combined with deltoid ligament (DL) injury results in decreased stability of ankle mortise, reduced contact surface between tibial and talus, increased local stress, and increased postoperative complications. The purpose of this meta-analysis… read more here.
