Arthroscopically Assisted Reduction and Fixation of Deltoid Ligament Avulsion Fracture From Medial Malleolus

Ankle fractures are one of the most common orthopaedic injuries. The surgical principle is to restore anatomy and stability of the ankle mortise. Repositioning of the talus under the tibia with normalization of the medial clear space is mandatory for a good outcome. Deltoid ligament injuries can pre...

description Ankle fractures are one of the most common orthopaedic injuries. The surgical principle is to restore anatomy and stability of the ankle mortise. Repositioning of the talus under the tibia with normalization of the medial clear space is mandatory for a good outcome. Deltoid ligament injuries can present as an avulsion fracture of the medial malleolus. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of arthroscopically assisted reduction and fixation of deltoid ligament avulsion fracture from medial malleolus. This can restore the medial stability of the ankle.
