Deltoid ligament reconstruction (DLR) is an important factor in the consideration of pes planus deformity. There is little evidence in the literature determining whether DLR could mitigate the risk of patients acquiring flat foot postoperatively following deltoid ligament injury. Our objective was to establish if there was a difference in pes planus deformity in patients who underwent DLR during their ankle fracture fixation compared to those who did not.Introduction
