Abstract
In bony or ligamentous injuries of the distal tibiofibular joint, inserting the fibula into the incisura fibularis tibiae can be difficult. In order to check the correct position of the fibula by means of X-ray, two radiological parameters could be distinguished in patients with surgically or conservatively treated fractures of the lateral malleolus. With the help of these easily measureable X-ray parameters, incongruences in the distal tibiofibular joint can be detected.Entities:
