    AbstractWe present a case of traumatic fibular bowing associated with ankle fracture in a 14-year-old girl. Acute traumatic bowing deformities of the fibula have always been reported as associated with mid-shaft tibial fractures, but involvement of the distal fibula associated with an ankle fracture has not been reported. The clinical picture is described and the mechanism of injury discussed.
