摘要
Ankle fractures are a common osteologic outcome from trauma. These fracture patterns include a variety of concomitant soft tissue disruptions, including diastasis. Surgical treatment of a syndesmotic injury can be performed in conjunction with open reduction with internal fixation. The present technique guide demonstrates the use of pre-existing hardware, after open reduction with internal fixation from a previous ankle fracture, with an Ilizarov fixation construct to percutaneously reduce a bimalleolar equivalent fracture and diastasis to the syndesmosis.
