A biomechanical comparison of the double-row suture fixation and compression screw techniques in the treatment of lateral malleolar avulsion fracture

Background: Avulsion fractures of fibula occur with ankle sprains. The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical characteristics of double-row suture versus compression screw techniques in treatment of lateral malleolar avulsion fracturelarger than 10 mm in size, which is typically not...
