Introduction: Fibular- and tibiofibular-based reconstructions are the gold standard treatment for posterolateral corner (PLC) injuries of the knee. This is the first report describing a wholly tibial-based PLC reconstruction.

Case Report: A 50-year-old female presented with knee instability following proximal fibular resection for a benign tumor, associated with chronic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency from a previous injury.

Introduction: Bony and ligamentous ankle injuries are some of the most commonly treated injuries by orthopedic surgeons. Open ligamentous ankle injuries without an associated fracture or dislocation are rare and to our knowledge have only sparsely been described in the literature. We present a case and successful treatment of an open lateral ankle injury with capsular rupture and ligamentous damage without fracture or dislocation in a 22-year-old female.

Introduction: Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsion fractures of the tibia with ipsilateral tibial shaft represent a rare but challenging orthopedic injury, necessitating careful consideration of surgical interventions for optimal outcomes. This case report presents the successful management of tibial shaft fracture (proximal 1/3rd junction) along with ipsilateral PCL avulsion fracture of tibia using a novel approach using open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of tibial shaft with Locking compression plate (LCP) with cannulated cancellous screw and spiked washer fixation of PCL avulsion. There are no case reports or research articles available for the management of PCL avulsion fracture of tibia associated with ipsilateral tibial shaft fracture.

Indication for this hemi-wedge high tibial osteotomy is the combination of medial osteoarthritis or cartilage damage, varus deformity of >10°, and medial proximal tibial angle of <80°. The proximal lateral tibia is exposed via a skin incision of approximately 10 cm length between the tibial tuberosity and the head of the fibula. After detachment of the anterior tibial muscle, a first oblique guidewire marks the main osteotomy plane and a second guidewire marks the hemi-wedge.

Prevalence and risk factors of concomitant malleolar and fibular fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures.

Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

January 2025

Department of Orthopaedics, Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital, School of Clinical Medicine, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.

Purpose: (1) To evaluate the incidence and combination types of concomitant malleolar and fibular fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures. (2) To evaluate the risk factors for concomitant malleolar fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures.

Methods: A retrospective review was performed on 64 cases of surgically treated distal spiral tibial shaft fractures with complete radiographs and computed tomography (CT) scans.
