A rare double Maisonneuve fracture involving concurrent proximal and distal fibula; Weber type A fracture: A case report

Double Maisonneuve fracture with a Weber type A distal fibular fracture is extremely rare. Accurate diagnosis requires careful palpation of the proximal fibula and imaging of the entire lower leg. Favorable outcomes can be achieved through proper restoration of fibular length and stabilization of the ankle mortise.

Abstract

Double Maisonneuve fracture with a Weber type A distal fibular fracture is extremely rare. Accurate diagnosis requires careful palpation of the proximal fibula and imaging of the entire lower leg. Favorable outcomes can be achieved through proper restoration of fibular length and stabilization of the ankle mortise.
