This article aims to describe a multicenter cohort of atypical triplane ankle fractures with intramalleolar involvement of the epiphysis, providing insights into the affected population, treatment outcomes, and complications. In addition, we propose a treatment strategy for such fractures based on our findings. A retrospective analysis was conducted on adolescent patients diagnosed with triplane ankle fractures.

Case Report: Triplane Fracture Of Distal Humeral Epiphysis Diagnosed Using Ultrasonography.

J Orthop Case Rep

October 2024

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Saiseikai Utsunomiya Hospital, 911-1, Takebayashimachi, Utsunomiya-Shi, Tochigi 321-0974, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • * Traditional imaging (X-ray and CT) showed a fracture in the lateral humerus, but the use of ultrasonography provided a clearer identification of the triplane fracture.
  • * The case highlights the importance of using ultrasonography for diagnosing distal humeral epiphysiolysis and encourages clinicians to consider triplane fractures during assessments.

Aims: Paediatric triplane fractures and adult trimalleolar ankle fractures both arise from a supination external rotation injury. By relating the experience of adult to paediatric fractures, clarification has been sought on the sequence of injury, ligament involvement, and fracture pattern of triplane fractures. This study explores the similarities between triplane and trimalleolar fractures for each stage of the Lauge-Hansen classification, with the aim of aiding reduction and fixation techniques.

Triplane ankle fracture patterns in paediatric patients.

Bone Joint J

November 2023

Department of Orthopaedic & Trauma Surgery, Flinders University, Flinders Medical Centre, Adelaide, Australia.

Aims: Triplane ankle fractures are complex injuries typically occurring in children aged between 12 and 15 years. Classic teaching that closure of the physis dictates the overall fracture pattern, based on studies in the 1960s, has not been challenged. The aim of this paper is to analyze whether these injuries correlate with the advancing closure of the physis with age.
