Part 18 (15 November 2016) – Complex Lower Leg Injury with Significant Injury to the Knee Joint and Extensor Mechanism

The CT scan revealed additional callus formation, but full union has yet to be achieved. Struts were replaced with threaded bars and hinges to improve stability and correct valgus deformity. Weight-bearing will continue as tolerated, with a follow-up scheduled in one week.

Part 17 (4 October 2016) – Complex Lower Leg Injury with Significant Injury to the Knee Joint and Extensor Mechanism

The patient continues using crutches but manages shorter distances unaided. No changes in leg alignment, with valgus remaining at 10-14 degrees. X-rays indicate further fracture healing and mature regenerate. A discrepancy in fibula movement is noted, but no ankle instability or pain is present. A CT scan is requested for further evaluation.
