Abstract:
Adequate reduction of posterior malleolar fractures leads to better outcomes. Arthroscopic reduction and internal fixation presents an opportunity for excellent reduction with a minimally invasive approach. Herein, we present a technique with some discussion on outcomes.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
