We present a case of delayed union following stress fracture of the distal fibula secondary to rotational malunion of a lateral malleolar fracture. The patient underwent operative excision of the nonunion, plating with autogenous iliac bone grafting, and correction of the malrotation of the distal fibular fragment. The fracture healed, and the patient was asymptomatic with full range of motion at follow-up. This report documents an unusual etiology, "external malrotation," for delayed union of a fibular stress fracture.
我们报告一例因外踝骨折旋转畸形愈合继发的腓骨远端应力性骨折延迟愈合病例。患者接受了骨不连的手术切除、自体髂骨移植钢板固定以及腓骨远端骨折块旋转畸形的矫正。骨折愈合，随访时患者无症状，活动范围正常。本报告记录了腓骨应力性骨折延迟愈合的一种不寻常病因，即“外旋畸形”。
