ABSTRACT
La luxación cerrada sin fractura asociada de tobillo es una entidad extremadamente rara. Se presenta el caso de un hombre de 35 años que se lesionó mientras jugaba fútbol. El tratamiento consistió en reducción cerrada seguido de inmovilización con una botina de yeso durante 6 semanas y descarga de la extremidad las primeras 10 semanas. A los 12 meses de seguimiento, el paciente había retomado la práctica deportiva con un rango de movimiento completo. Se revisó la bibliografía existente y se propone una nueva clasificación(AU)
Closed dislocation of ankle with no associated fracture is an extremely rare entity. A case of 35 year-old man who was injured while playing soccer is presented. The treatment consists of closed reduction followed by immobilization with a walking cast for 6 weeks and unloading of the injured extremity the first 10 weeks. At 12 months follow-up, the patient had reinitiated sport at full range of motion. The literature was reviewed and a new classification is proposed(AU)
La luxation fermée de cheville sans fracture associée est une affection très rare. Le cas d’un homme (35 ans) lésé en jouant au football est présenté. Le traitement a consisté en réduction fermée, suivie d’immobilisation par botte plâtrée pendant 6 semaines, et mise en décharge du membre inférieur les dix premières semaines. Douze mois après, le patient a repris la pratique sportive en un rang de mouvement complet. On a fait une revue de la littérature, et on propose une nouvelle classification(AU)

Free vascularized fibula is often used in orthopaedic reconstructive surgery because the fibula is a straight cortical bone, long enough, and has a long vascular pedicle. But morbidity is occurred at the donor site which may cause problems at the ankle in children. We reviewed 10 causes who had free vascularized fibula transfer at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine from January 1984 to June 1989. This study is attempted to evaluat the effects of fibular defect on the ankle in children and the results of treatment. Free vascularized fibula transfer was done in 5 cases due to ossifying fibroma, 3 cases due to nonunion of fracture and 2 cases due to congenital pseudoarthrosis. The average valgus deformity was 3 degrees in 2 cases in which distal tibiofibular fixation was done with one screw and 6 degrees in 8 cases in in which distal tibiofibular fixation was not done. Three cases had severe valgus deformity and secondary operation was done. The attended type of operation was distal tibiofibular fusion in 3 cases. The valgus deformity was changed after distal tibiofibular fusion from 4 degrees to 3 degrees in 3 cases. The size of fibular defect did not effect on the degree of valgus deformity of the ankle. In conclusion, fibular defect can cause valgus deformity of the ankle in children and early distal tibiofibular fusion is recommended to prevent valgus deformity of the ankle in growing child who as defect on fibular.
