[The treatment methods of ankle fractures and total psychophysical efficiency of patients].
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate an influence of conservative and operating treatment of ankle fractures for total psychophysical efficiency of patients.


METHODS
106 patients were examined with the own actual psychophysical efficiency questionnaire and related to the results of ankle fractures treatment according to Tylman's criteria.


RESULTS
The main part of controlled patients returned to the normal psychophysical efficiency after operating treatment. The large decrease of psychophysical efficiency of operated patients was determinate by inflammations. The bad results of conservative treatment were related to the lack of agreement for operation.
