Traumatic Posterior Tibial Tendon Rupture After Bimalleolar Fracture: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Öz
Introduction: Rupture of the posterior tibial tendon associated with
closed ankle fractures is seen rarely been and such cases in the literature
are usually reported as case reports.
Case Report: Bimalleolar fracture was determined in a 49 years old
man after a fall from stairs. Management was consisted of open reduction-internal
fixation of the fractures and primer repair of the tibialis
posterior tendon. After 12 months follow-up, the patient had adequate
ankle range of motion and comfortable walking. Significant major
complication was not noted.
Conclusion: However it is a rare condition, rupture of tibialis posterior
tendon should not be overlooked after ankle fractures. These ruptures
can be diagnosed only at surgery since pain inhibits clinical examination.
Misdiagnosed and untreated cases can cause major complications
such as ankle deformity, ankle joint arthrosis and chronic pain. In this
case report, we aimed to share our unique experience of a posterior
tibial tendon rupture associated with ankle fracture and to present a
comprehensive review of the literature

Giriş: Kapalı ayak bileği kırığıyla ilişkili ve birlikte posterior tibial
tendon rüptürü nadir görülür ve bu durum literatürde genellikle olgu
sunumu şeklinde rapor edilmiştir.
Olgu Sunumu: 49 yaşındaki erkekte, merdivenden düşme kazasıyla
ilgili ayak bileğinde bimalleoler kırık tespit edildi. Tedavisinde;
kırığın açık redüksiyon-internal fiksasyonu ve posterir tibial tendonun
primer tamiri yapıldı. Bu olguda yaralanmadan 12 ay sonra
hastanın; ayak bileği eklem hareketleri yeterliydi ve rahat yürüyebiliyordu.
Major komplikasyon gözlenmedi.
Sonuç: Seyrek görülmesine rağmen, ayak bileği kırıkları sonrası
posterior tibial tendon rüptürü gözden kaçırılmamalıdır. Bu yaralanmalara,
ağrının klinik muayeneyi engellemesi nedeniyle cerrahi
esnasında tanı konabilir. Tanısı atlanmış ve tedavi edilmemiş bu olgular,
ayak bileği deformitesi, ayak bileği eklemi artrozu ve kronik ağrı
gibi major komplikasyonlarla sonuçlanabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda;
ayak bileği travmasıyla ilişkili posterior tibial tendon rüptürü olgusundaki
deneyimlerimizi paylaşmayı ve kapsamlı bir literatür gözden
geçirmesi sunmayı amaçladık.
