Background: Treatment of the ankle fracture has been debated among orthopedic surgeons.Objective:To explore the clinical operation process of the three-ankle fracture patients through the posterolateral approach combined with the medial approach through internal fixation, and analyze its clinical value.

Method: We selected 32 patients who needed three-ankle fracture internal fixation surgery. According to different approaches, they were divided into a control group and an experimental group with 16 cases each. The experimental group was treated with posterolateral approach combined with medial approach. Three ankle fractures, while the control group was treated with traditional approach internal fixation surgery.The total curative effect after surgery, the incidence of postoperative complications,The therapeutic effects of the two surgical methods were compared, and the clinical results were analyzed. Value.

Result and Conclusion: The results show that the use of posterolateral combined medial approach internal fixation for the treatment of three ankle fractures will be more helpful to shorten the operation time, reduce postoperative complications, and have an excellent postoperative ankle function score, which has a higher clinical application value.
