AbstractThe authors report 26 cases of open bimalleolar fractures and discuss the various possibilities of treatment. Immediate internal fixation is indicated for types I or II of openings, being the best prevention of sepsis. These osteosynthesis should be the same as for closed fractures: screwing with or without associated AO plate and repair of peroneotibial ligaments.
