This animation depicts an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of a left ankle, during which a posterolateral incision is made over the ankle to expose a minimally displaced lateral malleolus fracture. Clamps are used to reduce the fracture, while a plate and screws are used to fix it. The wound is closed with sutures.
