myAO Editor’s Pick on trimalleolar fracture: posterolateral–medial approach in prone position
In this month’s Editor’s Pick, myAO is featuring a case on trimalleolar fracture which was submitted by Chun Keat Eo in the Lower Extremity discussion group on myAO.
In this case, the patient presented with severe right ankle pain and swelling after a fall, with closed manipulative reduction performed prior to CT imaging. Surgical fixation highlighted the importance of careful positioning and posterior malleolus plate contouring to optimize outcomes. This case offers practical insights into decision-making, intra-operative technique, and opportunities for refinement in complex ankle trauma management.
