After fully revealed the posterior malleolus and distal articular surface of the tibia, the anatomical reduction of comminuted bones with joint cartilage and posterior malleolus was achieved by fixed with absorbable screw or Kirschner wire. The talus and the distal end of internal and external malleolus were pushed the outside to form the lateral dislocation of the ankle joint. Longitudinal curved incision in medial malleolus was made in ankle joint dislocation and subluxation was automatically formed by appropriate traction of ankle joint. They were all treated by ankle joint dislocation and the surgical results were evaluated by the Baird–Jackson ankle scoring system. Patients who had dislocated trimalleolar fractures accompanied with the complex posterior malleolus fracture without separation of the tibiofibular syndesmosis were retrospectively analyzed and 30 patients were enrolled the study. To explore the therapy of ankle joint dislocation treating dislocated trimalleolar fractures accompanied with the complex posterior malleolus fracture without separation of the tibiofibular syndesmosis and improve surgical results.
