DOI: 10.1007/s00402-020-03353-2
Abstract: Background Direct fixation of posterior malleolar fractures has been shown to lead to higher accuracy of fracture reduction compared to an indirect anterior to posterior fixation but lacks long-term clinical results. This study shows the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00402-021-03772-9
Abstract: This study investigated the effects of a small posterior malleolar fragment (PMF), containing less than 25% articular surface area, on ankle joint stability via computed tomography (CT) scanning under full weight bearing in a human… read more here.

Abstract: Intra-articular impacted fragment (IAIF) was considered as the articular surface fragment resulting from impact and compressive forces. Malreduction of IAIF in posterior malleolar fractures was associated with the cause of talus subluxation and long-term arthritis.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000000623
Abstract: Background Psychosocial factors, such as depression and catastrophic thinking, might account for more disability after various orthopaedic trauma pathologies than range of motion and other impairments. However, little is known about the influence of psychosocial… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4056777
Abstract: BACKGROUND We hypothesized that, as posterior malleolar ankle fractures usually present one or two main fragments, the buttress plating principle can be successfully achieved either with conventional nonlocking or anatomic locking posterior tibia plates, and… read more here.
