[Results of surgically treated luxation fractures of the upper ankle joint (author's transl)].
113 patients were followed up after an average period of 27.2 months postoperatively following surgical treatment of luxation fractures of the ankle joint, from a closed series of 200 operations carried out in accordance with AO principles. Unsatisfactory late results were found in Type C in 38.6% of the cases, in the total group in 29.2% of the cases. The rate of infection was about 2%. One-third of the poor results were due to pre-arthrotic deformities or damages due to accidents; over and above this, surgico-technical complications led to unsatisfactory treatment results.
