Abstract:
Early surgical intervention utilizing a fibular osteotomy to restore the fibular length results in restoration of ankle-joint congruency and stability. This can delay the need for an ankle arthrodesis or implant. The type of osteotomy performed depends on the amount of fibular rotation that has occurred and whether or not the syndesmosis is involved.
