Manejo terapêutico do maléolo posterior em fraturas do tornozelo trimaleolar. Revisão bibliográfica
Palavras-chave:

Resumo
Introdução: O tratamento terapêutico das fraturas do maléolo posterior nas fraturas do tornozelo trimaleolar continua em debate. Nosso objetivo foi realizar uma pesquisa de evidências científicas
sobre os aspectos terapêuticos das fraturas do maléolo posterior no contexto das fraturas trimaleolares.
Materiais e métodos: Uma revisão sistemática da literatura foi realizada por dois revisores, com foco no manejo terapêutico do maléolo posterior.
Resultados: foram obtidos 16 artigos clínicos com um total de 1029 pacientes, 8 estudos com nível de evidência II e 8 estudos com nível IV. As indicações cirúrgicas foram sistematizadas e os resultados e
complicações funcionais foram analisados.
Conclusões: O entendimento anatomopatológico dessas fraturas está aumentando a cada dia, principalmente devido ao uso habitual de tomografias computadorizadas. O tratamento cirúrgico do maléolo posterior mostra bons e excelentes resultados funcionais. Para uma decisão terapêutica adequada, certos fatores devem ser levados em consideração: instabilidade tibiotalar e sindesmótica, congruência articular e características morfológicas do maléolo
posterior. A redução aberta e a fixação interna com placa de suporte é o tratamento que apresenta melhores resultados no curto e médio prazo, não encontrando estudos com acompanhamento a longo prazo.
