A biomechanical comparison of posterior malleolar fracture fixation using screws and locking plates in Trimalleolar fractures: a finite element study

Abstract Background The aim of the study is to compare the mechanical stability of posterior malleolar fractures fixed with different screw types and locking plates in the management of trimalleolar ankle fractures using the finite element (FE) method. Methods An FE model containing the distal tibia...
