2025年4月7日 · The Weber ankle fracture classification (or Danis-Weber classification) is a simple system for classification of lateral malleolar fractures, relating to the level of the fracture in relation to the ankle joint, specifically the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. It …

Ankle fractures are very common injuries to the ankle which generally occur due to a twisting mechanism. Diagnosis is made with plain radiographs of the ankle. Treatment can be nonoperative or operative depending on fracture displacement, ankle stability, presence of syndesmotic injury, and patient activity demands. 1.

The Danis-Weber classification (Weber classification) is a simple method for classifying fractures of lateral ankle fractures and is based on radiographic criteria. It takes into consideration the position of the distal fibular fracture in relation to the syndesmosis of the ankle joint.

Cold packs: A cold pack (ice pack or frozen peas wrapped in a damp towel) can provide short term pain relief. Apply this to the sore area for up to 15 minutes, every few hours ensuring the ice is never in direct contact with the skin. Rest and Elevation: Try to rest the leg for the first 24-72 hours to allow the early stage of healing to begin.

2012年8月23日 · Adding the stages of Lauge-Hansen to the Weber system will help you to predict ligamentous injury and instability. This article will help you to correctly stage ankle injuries and to detect fractures, that are not obvious at first sight. Basically there …

Bimalleolar fracture and right ankle dislocation on X-ray (anteroposterior). Both the end of the fibula (1) and the tibia (2) are broken and the malleolar fragments (arrow: medial malleolus, arrowhead: lateral malleolus) are displaced. ↑ Tips for Managing Weber B Ankle Fractures By Joseph Noack, MD; and Spencer Tomberg, MD.

2022年10月13日 · A Weber A fracture is a common injury which simply refers to a fracture near the end of the fibula bone at the ankle. It is a stable injury and most commonly occurs when the sole of your foot turns inwards, overstretching the ligaments on the outside of your ankle and squeezing those on the inside.

You have sustained a fracture to your fibula (outside ankle bone) this is classified as a stable Weber A type fracture. Please see the picture below to understand where this injury is. This normally takes approximately 6 weeks to unite (heal) although pain and swelling can be ongoing for 3 to 6 months.

Define the specific articular pathology associated with SA and PAB fractures. List the 3 common posterior malleolar fracture patterns. State the indication to fix posterior malleolar fractures. Enumerate the ways to ensure syndesmotic reduction. Watch the show on “normal view” and look at the notes at the bottom of the slides.

Ankle fracture classified as Weber A represents: fractures below the level of the talar dome; usually transverse; tibiofibular syndesmosis intact; deltoid ligament intact; medial malleolus often, but not always, fractured; usually stable if medial malleolus intact
