Experimental post-traumatic arthritis was accompanied by overexpression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and imbalance in the collagen metabolism. Intraarticular injection of mexidol prevented free-radical degradation of collagen structures, contributed to activation of collagen synthesis and cartilage repair, and reduced the severity of inflammatory changes in the joint and the degree of secondary alteration of tissue structures.

Pilon fractures are associated with high-energy injuries, and there is presently much debate as to optimal fixation strategies and timing of intervention. There is little evidence comparing the type of fibular fixation during pilon fracture fixation. The purpose of this study was to compare fibular fixation methods in complex pilon injuries as it relates to pilon union rates and development of post-traumatic arthritis.

Background: Ankle fractures are among the most common types of fractures in the orthopaedic field, and the Lauge-Hansen classification is commonly used to categorize rotational ankle fractures. This study evaluated and compared the clinical and radiological outcomes of surgically treated supination external rotation (SER) and pronation external rotation (PER) injuries of grades III or IV.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed and enrolled 104 patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation for SER or PER injuries classified as Grades III or IV between January 2016 and December 2021, all performed at a single center.
