Introduction

Different techniques for fixation of lateral malleolus have been described. We report our results of using fibula rod for unstable ankle fractures in level one major trauma centre.

Methods

We reviewed the results of 40 ankle fractures (14 open and 26 closed) with significant soft tissue injuries and open fractures that were treated with a fibula rod between 2012 and 2015. The median age of patients was 60 (17–98 years).
