Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 80319
  • Image ID: 53199435
  • Image stack position: 51/58
  • Plane projection: Coronal
  • Aux modality: non-contrast
  • Study findings: Bone and joint: Intra-articular fracture of the anterolateral distal tibia (Chaput tubercle) with minor anterolateral displacement. A small 2-3 mm flake fracture fragment lies immediately adjacent to the main fracture site. There is an ankle and subtalar joint effusion.
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Musculoskeletal
  • Findings: Initial plain radiographs demonstrated soft tissue swelling over the lateral malleolus and anteriorly over the ankle joint.  An ankle effusion is present.  The frontal view shows an unusual drop-like density projected over the distal fibula.  This is due to the lucent Chaput fracture line.
