• ABSTRACT
    • We have analysed 31 malunited ankle fractures treated by reconstructive osteotomies. In all cases the malunited fibula has been corrected; this has been combined with other osteotomies and with fixation of ununited fragments as indicated. Our results show that, unless function was severely impaired, reconstruction was always worth while, no matter how long ago the injury had occurred and even if there were already arthritic changes.
