AbstractWe present a case report of a variation of a Bosworth fracture, which is a posterior dislocation of the proximal fragment of a distal fibula fracture. Our patient had a distal fibula dislocation without fracture. He was treated with an open reduction and internal fixation using syndesmotic screws. At his most recent follow-up, he was ambulating without pain.
