pilon fracture
A Pilon fracture, also called a Plafond fracture, is a fracture of the distal part of the tibia, involving its articular surface at the ankle joint. Pilon fractures are caused by rotational or axial forces, mostly as a result of falls from a height or motor vehicle accidents. Pilon fractures are rare, comprising 3 to 10 percent of all fractures of the tibia and 1 percent of all lower extremity fractures, but they involve a large part of the weight bearing surface of the Tibia in the ankle joint. Because of this, they may be difficult to fixate and are historically associated with high rates of complications and poor outcome.
''Pilon'' is the French word for pestle and was introduced into orthopedic literature in 1911 by pioneer French radiologist Étienne Destot.〔
== Classification==
Pilon fractures are categorized by the Ruedi-Allgower classification system.
