Read Full License Page 1/12 Abstract Background: Posterior pilon fracture is a type of ankle fracture associated with poorer treatment results compared to the conventional ankle fracture. This is partly related to the lack of consensus on the classication, approach selection, and internal xation method for this type of fracture. This study aimed to investigate the clinical ecacy of posterolateral approach versus extended modied posteromedial approach for surgical treatment of posterior pilon fracture. Methods: Data of 67 patients with posterior pilon fracture who received xation with a buttress plate between January 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients received steel plate xation through either the posterolateral approach (n = 35, group A) or the extended modied posteromedial approach (n = 32, group B). Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, excellent and good rate of reduction, fracture healing time, American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle- Hindfoot Scale score, and Visual Analogue Scale score were compared between groups A and B.

DRFs have traditionally been treated with a plaster or surgically with percutaneous methods. Since the end of the 20th century, when internal fixation with a volar locking plate (VLP) was introduced, the incidence of DRF surgery in general and of plating in particular have increased markedly.
