Manasseh Nithyananth et al. Foot Ankle Surg. 2010 Jun.

Abstract

We describe the reconstruction of the medial malleolus in a severe open ankle injury with iliac crest bone graft and sural artery flap in a young adult. At two years follow-up he had a good outcome with a painless, stable ankle with nearly full plantarflexion but restricted dorsiflexion.
