POSTERIOR DISLOCATION ( FIGURE 67.1 ) Usually result of forced plantar flexion or a strong forward force applied to the posterior tibia Most are associated with a fracture of one or more malleoli Presents with the ankle held in plantar flexion with foot [aneskey.com]

In majority of reported case it presents as an open injury making the closed injury more rare presentation. The stability of the ankle joint depends on medial and lateral ligaments. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A case report is presented below to help accurately diagnose and treat the Bosworth ankle fracture-dislocation. [www2.aoao.org]

  • Wound Infection

    Antibiotics were administered both pre- and postoperatively to prevent wound infection. Antibiotic treatment is essential since it has been reported that the rate of wound infection in patients with ankle fractures can reach up to 10% [ 20, 21 ]. [bmcsurg.biomedcentral.com]

  • Muscle Weakness

    Possible risk factors that may predispose a patient to dislocation include the following: joint hyperlaxity, internal malleolar hypoplasia, peroneal muscle weakness, and a history of prior ankle sprains. [boneandspine.com]

    Moehring et al. [ 5 ] suggested that some factors such as medial malleolus hypoplasia, ligamentous laxity and peroneal muscles weakness can predispose ankle to pure dislocation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis of an Dislocated Ankle The prognosis of an ankle dislocation depends on the amount of damage to the ankle. If there is any joint cartilage damage, it predisposes the ankle to development of arthritis. [footankleinstitute.com]

To date, there has been no precedent for accurate descriptions of the mechanisms, optimum treatment, and long-term prognosis of this injury. Our goal was to evaluate these variables by a retrospective review of cases from our institution. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

[…] capsular structures is often severe, and the risk of infection secondary to open injury is often significant; however, prompt reduction and, when warranted, operative debridement and repair usually lead to excellent functional recovery and long-term prognosis [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prognosis Most people recover full function following a course of conservative care of physical therapy to strengthen and stabilize the ankle following the immobilization period. [twinboro.com]

However, early reduction, young age, and the absence of vascular and neuronal injury were associated with a better overall prognosis in our case. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

Dislocation of Ankle Relevant Anatomy of Ankle Joint and Pathophysiology The ankle joint is formed by distal part of the tibia including medial malleolus and the distal part of the fibula called lateral malleolus which articulates with talus bone. [boneandspine.com]

An external fixator was used to stabilize the limb. [5] Pathophysiology The ankle joint is designed for a balance of stability and flexibility, particularly the former. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Is it possible to prevent a dislocated ankle? A dislocated ankle is an accidental injury and most often cannot be prevented. [medicinenet.com]

Crutches help you keep your weight off your ankle, and help prevent more ankle damage. Physical therapy: A physical therapist teaches you exercises to help improve movement and strength, and to decrease pain. [drugs.com]

A medical team’s first responsibility is to reduce the dislocation to prevent further damage to the soft tissues and to realign the bones. The ankle will be splinted and immobilized to prevent further injury. [liveactivesportmed.com]

Is It Possible to Prevent a Dislocated Ankle? Ankle dislocations occur due to traumatic injuries due to falls, accidents, or sports-related injuries and usually are not preventable. [emedicinehealth.com]
