Fracture of the medial malleolus seen on X-ray scan (left ankle) Common symptoms of a Maisonneuve fracture are pain, swelling, tenderness, and bruising around the ankle joint and inferior (or distal) tibiofibular joint. More specifically, as a pronation-external rotation injury, pain during external rotation of the ankle joint is expected.
Transverse comminuted fracture of the fibula above the level of the syndesmosis; Pronation-External rotation: Medial malleolus transverse fracture or disruption of deltoid ligament; Anterior tibiofibular ligament disruption; Lateral short oblique or spiral fracture of fibula (anterosuperior to posteroinferior) above the level of the joint
spiral fracture of proximal fibula: external rotation of ankle: Maisonneuve fracture at Wheeless' Textbook of Orthopaedics online Malgaigne's fracture: Joseph-François Malgaigne: vertical pelvic fracture through both pubic rami and the ilium or sacroiliac joint with vertical displacement: high energy impact to pelvis (front to back)
An ankle fracture is a break of one or more of the bones that make up the ankle joint. [1] Symptoms may include pain, swelling, bruising , and an inability to walk on the injured leg. [ 1 ] Complications may include an associated high ankle sprain , compartment syndrome , stiffness, malunion , and post-traumatic arthritis .
The Bosworth fracture is a rare fracture of the distal fibula with an associated fixed posterior dislocation of the proximal fibular fragment which becomes trapped behind the posterior tibial tubercle. The injury is caused by severe external rotation of the ankle. [1]
Pott's fracture, also known as Pott's syndrome I and Dupuytren fracture, is an archaic term loosely applied to a variety of bimalleolar ankle fractures. [1] The injury is caused by a combined abduction external rotation from an eversion force.
Pronation is the way your foot lands and distributes the impact inward or outward when you’re walking. Having high arches, incorrect pronation, and wearing shoes that aren’t supportive enough ...
Pronation is a natural movement of the foot that occurs during foot landing while running or walking. Composed of three cardinal plane components: subtalar eversion, ankle dorsiflexion, and forefoot abduction, [1] [2] these three distinct motions of the foot occur simultaneously during the pronation phase.
