Effects and Anti-rotation Stabilization of the Non-bridging External Fixation for Pronation-Abduction Stage III Ankle Fracture: A Cadaveric Study

Figure 2

The fracture line of the medial and lateral malleoli obtained from the typical PAB stage III ankle plain radiographs using Digitizer 4.2.6.0. (i) Anteroposterior ankle view: (a) the lateral height of the lateral malleolus; (b) the medial height of the lateral malleolus; (c) the medial height of the medial malleolus; (d) the lateral height of the medial malleolus. (ii) Lateral ankle view: (e, f) the measurement of the lateral malleoli, which could indicate the fracture line trend.
