The main indication for surgery for external ankle fracture is that the fracture end is obviously dislocated, or even combined with subluxation or total dislocation of the ankle joint, and if it cannot be successfully repositioned by manipulation, or even after manipulation, it is easy to be re-dislocated again, then surgical treatment must be performed. In addition, if the lateral ankle is fractured and there is a large part of the lateral collateral ligament torn, or completely ruptured, it must also be surgically treated, in addition to the treatment of the fracture, it is also necessary to suture the torn and injured lateral collateral ligament, and usually the surgical treatment is to give surgical incision and repositioning, and the use of Kirschner’s pins, screws, or resorbable screws to fixate the end of the fracture.
