According to domestic and foreign literature, a large number of unsatisfactory results (up to 40%) in the treatment of patients with intra-articular fractures of the distal metaepiphysis of the tibia are associated with massive destruction of the articular surface of the ankle joint. This leads to repeated surgical interventions aimed at correcting the orthopedic consequences of the trauma.

Currently, there is no clear algorithm for preoperative planning and operative technique. This is due to errors made during preoperative planning and surgical treatment.

For modern medicine, the problem of reducing the labor activity of patients with CRF and leading to disability in 26% of cases is very important.
