Study type | Interventional |
This is a prospective randomized study conducted on 30 patients with an age spanning between 20 and 55 years. Half of the sample was treated by tension band wiring for closed medial malleolar fractures, and the other half by two cannulated screws. The patients were assessed at (6w-3months and 6months) for clinical and radiological union and evaluated functionally (12 months) using modified Olerund and Molander scoring system.
