Prognostic factors for intermediate-term clinical outcomes following Bosworth fractures of the ankle joint

Foot and Ankle Surgery Jun 07, 2018

Cho BK, et al. - Researchers evaluated the clinical outcomes after surgical treatment for Bosworth fracture-dislocation, and analysed the prognostic factors related to postoperative outcomes in this retrospective comparative study. They recognized the Bosworth fracture-dislocation as an uncommon pattern of ankle fracture. Delayed or missed diagnosis of Bosworth fracture-dislocation on a radiograph was often observed. Reduction of Bosworth fracture-dislocations using closed methods could not be achieved usually. Compared to common ankle fracture-dislocation, outcomes after Bosworth injury were statistically comparable. Negative outcome predictors included delayed operation and repeated manual reductions.
