Novel Developments in Ankle Fracture Treatment

Ankle Surgery Update

Welcome to our first episode of Ankle Surgery Update – Science guiding treatment in 2021. We are starting with great enthusiasm into this year. With several vaccinations available, there is a perspective to tackle the COVID pandemic and we got exciting new research projects coming up. With those good spirits, we decided to spend this first issue on one of our favorit topics, Ankle Fractures.

The first two articles presented in our podcast this year will be:

• “Hybrid Fixation for Danis-Weber Type C Fractures With Syndesmosis Injury” published by Kim and Park in Foot & Ankle International (Doi: 10.1177/1071100720964799) AND
• “Posterior malleolar ankle fractures – Predictors of outcome” published by Blom and colleagues in The Bone & Joint Journal (Doi: 10.1302/0301-620X.102B9. BJJ-2019-1660.R1 $2.00)

We hope you all had a pleasant Holiday Season and a good start into 2019. Let’s start this year with these two exciting papers!
