LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Results presented here showed so-called “quadrimalleolar” fractures may represent a significant portion of ankle fracture injuries, despite its relatively limited presence in the ankle literature.
“In conclusion, [quadrimalleolar fractures] QMFs describe a severe fracture conglomeration that is often missed or underreported,” Noopur Ranganathan, BS, said in her presentation at the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society Annual Meeting.
In a retrospective analysis of data collected from 876 adults, Ranganathan studied the cross-sectional data.
