NCT07481266
Single-Window Versus Two-Window Posterolateral Approach for Malleolar Fractures
The purpose of this prospective clinical trial is to compare the clinical outcomes and early wound complication rates of two different surgical techniques used during the posterolateral approach for ankle fractures. Participants with fractures involving the posterior and lateral malleoli will undergo surgery using either a single-window technique (using a posterior antiglide plate) or a two-window technique (using a lateral anatomic plate). The main question the study aims to answer is whether the single-window approach reduces soft-tissue complications by minimizing surgical dissection, without compromising fracture stability. Patients will be followed for 12 months to assess wound healing, ankle range of motion, implant irritation, and functional recovery.

A Study to Compare Two Different Managements After Ankle Surgery: Immediate and Delayed Weight-bearing.
The investigators will compare two types of rehabilitation in patients who undergo a surgery for treatment of malleolar fractures: immediate complete weight-bearing and delayed weight-bearing. The investigators want to evaluate if the immediate complete weight-bearing can improve and hasten the functional outcome of the ankle without increasing the risk of complications.
