  • Title: Single Oblique Incision for Simultaneous Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of the Posterior Malleolus and Anterior Syndesmosis.
    Author: McGoldrick NP, Murphy EP, Kearns SR.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2016; 55(3):664-7. PubMed ID: 26970910.
    Abstract:
    Several surgical approaches to the posterior malleolus have been described. However, these approaches may make it difficult for fixation of associated lateral malleolar and anterior syndesmotic fractures. A single incision approach is described that allows safe access to the posterior malleolus while also facilitating access to the lateral malleolus and anterior syndesmosis.
