ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the latest clinical characteristics and development trends of posterior malleolus fracture.Methods:
Clinical information of inpatients with posterior malleolus fracture in Shanghai Tongji Hospital and Karamay Central Hospital from January 2014 to December 2022 were reviewed and collected. The imaging data of patients were acquired using the Picture Archiving and Communication Systems. A statistical analysis was performed as to gender, current age, year of admission, injury mechanism, fracture type, and posterior malleolus fracture classification. Moreover, a comparative analysis was conducted on the injury mechanisms and morphological differences of posterior malleolus fracture at different periods, regions, and age groups.Results:
A total of 472 patients (210 patients from Shanghai Tongji Hospital and 262 patients from Karamay Central Hospital) with posterior malleolus fracture with a mean age of (48.7±15.6) years were included in this study. The peak of posterior malleolus fracture occurs in the age group of 50-59 years. The injury mechanisms mainly involve low-energy fall and sprain (411 cases, 87.1%), followed by traffic accidents (52 cases, 11.0%), and fall injury from height (9 cases, 1.9%). The number of cases according to different fracture types showed the following descending order trimalleolar fracture-supination extorsion (335 cases, 71.0%), bimalleolar fracture (60 cases, 12.7%), trimalleolar fracture-pronation extorsion (43 cases, 9.1%), posterior malleolus+tibial shaft fracture (19 cases, 4.0%), simple posterior malleolus fracture (15 cases, 3.2%). The numbers of cases corresponding to the Haraguchi â , â ¡ and â ¢ type of posterior malleolus fractures was 369 (78.2%), 49 (10.4%), and 54 (11.4%), respectively. The Tongji â ¡A type represented the highest number of cases (249 cases, 52.8%), followed by the â ¡B type (120 cases, 25.4%), â type (54 cases, 11.4%), â ¢B type (36 cases, 7.6%), and â ¢A type (13 cases, 2.8%). However, no obvious statistical difference was observed in the injury mechanism, Haraguchi classification, and Tongji classification of posterior malleolus fractures among different years and regions from the year of 2014 to 2022 (all P>0.05).Conclusions:
The injury mechanism of posterior malleolus fracture mainly involves low-energy fall and sprain cases. The trimalleolar fracture-supination extorsion, Haraguchi â type and Tongji â ¡A type of posterior malleolus fracture are predilection fracture types, and all present an obvious incidence peak in the age group of 50-59 years. There has been no significant change in the development trend of clinical characteristics of posterior malleolus fractures in recent years.
