Background: Injury mechanism and the amount of force are important factors determining whether a fracture or sprain occurs at the time of an ankle inversion injury. However, the anatomical differences between the ankle fracture and sprain have not been investigated sufficiently. This study was performed to investigate whether an anatomical predisposition of the ankle joint results in a lateral malleolar fracture or lateral ankle sprain. Methods: Two groups of consecutive patients, one with lateral malleolar fracture (274 patients, mean age 49.0 years) and the other with lateral ankle sprain (400 patients, mean age 38.4 years), were evaluated. Ankle radiographs were examined for 7 measures: distal tibial articular surface (DTAS) angle, bimalleolar tilt (BT), medial malleolar relative length (MMRL), lateral malleolar relative length (LMRL), medial malleolar slip angle (MMSA), anterior inclination of tibia (AI), and fibular position (FP). After an interobserver reliability test, the radiographic measurements were compared between the 2 groups. Linear regression analysis was performed to correct for age and sex effects between the groups. Results: The fracture group and the sprain group showed significant differences in BT (P = .001), MMSA (P < .001), AI (P = .023), and FP (P < .001). In multiple regression analysis, after adjusting for age and sex effects, fracture and sprain groups showed a significant difference in BT (P = .001), MMRL (P < .001), MMSA (P < .001), and FP (P < .001). Conclusions: The lateral malleolar fracture group tended to show more bony constraint than that of the lateral ankle sprain group. Further 3-dimensional assessment of the bony structure and subsequent biomechanical studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism of injury according to the various types of ankle fractures and ankle sprain. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Background: Ankle injuries associated with tibial shaft fractures can cause postoperative ankle pain and stiffness even when satisfactory bony union has been achieved. Although several previous studies have described these injuries, they have not been clearly defined or classified in terms of ankle injury type or need for surgical fixation. Methods: Seventy-one consecutive patients (mean ± SD age, 48.3 ± 16.7 years; 37 men and 34 women) with tibial shaft fractures who underwent computed tomography examination were included. Data were collected including age, sex, body mass index, fracture location of the tibia and fibula (in percentile of length), tibial fracture shape (spiral, oblique, transverse), presence and pattern of concomitant ankle injuries (on the distal tibial articular surface), and necessity for surgical fixation of ankle injuries. Factors associated with concomitant ankle injuries associated with tibial shaft fractures were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 47 (64.7%) of the 71 tibial shaft fractures involved concomitant ankle injuries, including 8 cases of combined lateral malleolar fracture, posterior malleolar fracture, and anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL) avulsion fracture; 9 cases of combined posterior malleolar fracture and AITFL avulsion fracture; 6 cases of combined lateral malleolar fracture and posterior malleolar fracture; 1 case of combined lateral malleolar fracture and AITFL avulsion fracture; 10 cases of posterior malleolar fracture; 7 cases of lateral malleolar fracture; 5 cases of AITFL avulsion fracture; and 1 unclassified fracture. Of these, 34 of the ankle injuries required surgical fixation. Spiral-type tibial shaft fracture was significantly associated with concomitant ankle injury (P = .001). Conclusions: Orthopaedic surgeons should be aware that tibial shaft fractures, especially spiral-type fractures, are frequently associated with ankle injuries, such as lateral malleolar fractures, posterior malleolar fractures, and AITFL avulsion fractures. A considerable portion of these cases may necessitate surgical fixation. We recommend all spiral-type tibial shaft fractures routinely undergo computed tomography examination. Level of Evidence: Level III, comparative series.

This study aimed to investigate factors affecting length of hospital stay and mortality of a specific group of patients with infected diabetic foot ulcer who underwent surgical drainage without major amputation, which is frequently encountered by orthopedic surgeons. Data on length of hospital stay, mortality, demographics, and other medical information were collected for 79 consecutive patients (60 men, 19 women; mean age, 66.1 [SD, 12.3] yr) with infected diabetic foot ulcer who underwent surgical drainage while retaining the heel between October 2003 and May 2013. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to determine factors affecting length of hospital stay, while multiple Cox regression analysis was conducted to assess factors contributing to mortality. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR, P=0.034), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level (P=0.021), body mass index (BMI, P=0.001), and major vascular disease (cerebrovascular accident or coronary artery disease, P=0.004) were significant factors affecting length of hospital stay, whereas age (P=0.005) and serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level (P=0.024) were significant factors contributing to mortality. In conclusion, as prognostic factors, the length of hospital stay was affected by the severity of inflammation, the recent control of blood glucose level, BMI, and major vascular disease, whereas patient mortality was affected by age and renal function in patients with infected diabetic foot ulcer undergoing surgical drainage and antibiotic treatment.

This study investigated the radiologic results of a stepwise surgical approach to equinocavovarus in 24 patients with cerebral palsy and determined the extent to which each procedure affected radiographic parameters using a linear mixed model. The anteroposterior talus–first metatarsal and anteroposterior talonavicular coverage angles were improved. The calcaneal pitch angle, tibiocalcaneal angle, lateral talus–first metatarsal angle, and naviculocuboid overlap were also improved. The Dwyer sliding osteotomy affected the tibiocalcaneal angle, whereas first metatarsal dorsal wedge osteotomy improved the calcaneal pitch angle and lateral first metatarsal angle. The stepwise surgical approach is effective for correction of equinocavovarus in cerebral palsy patients.
