The incidence of osteochondral lesions following ankle fractures varies in the literature between 17-70%. They are commonly associated with chronic pain and swelling in patients diagnosed with such pathology. There is less evidence about the relationship between OCL and the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis, the most common type of ankle arthritis. Through the use of MRI 8 weeks following ankle fractures, we investigated the incidence of OCL in patients treated both surgically and conservatively for ankle fractures of all AO subtypes.Introduction
