title: [Luxation of the ankle joint without fracture (author's transl)].
abstract: Report on 3 cases of luxation in the ankle joint without fracture. It is supposed that this injury is much more frequent than generally assumed. The fundamental pathogenetics of these injuries are discussed. There was always immobilisation in a cast following operative treatment. In one case the talus was fixed additionally by a transarticular Kirschner-wire. Because of splitting, the common suture of a liagment is problematical. It is proposed to fix the ligament under a small screw.
