Abstract

The incidence of ankle fractures has been increasing among all fractures due to skeletal traumas. Bimalleolar fractures account for 25% of all ankle fractures. Bilateral traumatic bimalleolar ankle fracture is a very rare condition. In such a clinical presentation, pregnancy managed with cesarean procedure complicates the situation due to increased risk of venous thromboembolism and fatal pulmonary embolism. In this article, we report a 25-year-old female case within an eight-month pregnancy period who had bilateral bimalleolar ankle fracture due to an accident in a motor-vehicle and the clinical and radiological results of surgical treatment were discussed in the light of current literature data.

Özet

Ayak bileği kırıkları, iskelet travmaları sonrası oluşan tüm kırıklar içerisinde giderek artan sıklıkta görülmektedir. Tüm ayak bileği kırıklarının yaklaşık %25’ini bimalleoler kırıklar oluşturmaktadır. İki taraflı travmatik bimalleoller ayak bileği kırığı ise çok nadir görülen bir durumdur. Bu tablo içerisinde aynı zamanda sezaryen doğum ile müdahale edilmiş gebelik durumunun olması, olguyu özellikle venöz tromboembolizm ve ölümcül pulmoner emboli yönünden daha da komplike hale getirmektedir. Bu yazıda, sekiz aylık gebelik öyküsü bulunan ve araç içi trafik kazası sonucu iki taraflı bimalleoler ayak bileği kırığı olan 25 yaşındaki kadın olgu sunuldu ve uygulanan cerrahi tedavi sonrası elde edilen klinik ve radyolojik sonuçlar literatür ışığında tartışıldı.
