The Lauge-Hansen classification is a system of categorizing ankle fractures based on the foot position and the force applied. [1]
Out of the following, the Lauge-Hansen and Danis-Weber classification systems are most commonly used. [9] The Lauge-Hansen classification categorizes fractures based on the mechanism of the injury as it relates to the position of the foot and the deforming force (the most common type is supination-external rotation)
It is also classified as a Type C ankle fracture according to the Danis-Weber classification system.
