Ankle Arthroscopy for Ankle Fractures
Arthroscopy Techniques, 2015 In many patients who undergo open reduction-internal fixation of ankle fractures, there is a failure to achieve good clinical outcomes despite radiographic evidence of anatomic reduction. One possible reason for this is the high incidence of concomitant intra-articular pathology associated with ankle fractures that may go unrecognized using traditional
