Aim:
To study the application value of ankle fracture classification and diagnosis. In this paper, the clinical data of 100 cases of ankle fracture patients admitted from May 2020 to May 2021 were analyzed by CT 3D reconstruction. All patients received surgical treatment and underwent spiral CT 3D reconstruction and X-ray examination before surgery. The results showed that 20 cases (20.00%) of the 100 cases were PER, 24 cases (24%) of the 100 cases were PAB, 31 cases (31%) of the 100 cases were SER, and 25 cases (25%) of the 100 cases were SAB, respectively.
Conclusion:
The diagnostic accuracy of CT 3D reconstruction for different types of ankle fracture is higher than that of X-ray, and the differences are statistically significant (P < 0.05). CT 3D reconstruction is applied in the early diagnosis of ankle fracture, which can accurately detect the classification of patients. It has important clinical application value and can be used as the first choice for the early classification diagnosis of ankle fracture.

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...
