Pilon Fractures: Four Classic Rules vs. Four Modern Realities
For decades, Pilon fracture management has been anchored in dogma — staged fixation, fibular reconstruction, standard anterior approaches, and “fusion as last resort.” But recent 2023–2024 studies are rewriting those rules. Here’s a sharp, evidence-based comparison between traditional orthopedics and the modern trauma mindset. Primary Keywords: Pilon fracture, staged fixation, fibular fixation, ankle fusion Reference: […]
