Abstract:Abstract:objectiveTo investigate the effect of emergency operation on ankle fracture combined with dislocation and its effect on ankle joint function. Methods A total of 56 patients with ankle fracture and dislocation who underwent surgery from March 2016 to March 2017 were randomly divided into two groups.The control group received elective surgery and the study group received emergency surgery.After 6 monthes of treatment，the efficacy of the treatment and the effects of postoperative ankle joint function were compared between the two groups. Results The total effective rate of the study group was slightly higher than that of the control group,but the difference was not statistically significant (82.2% vs 64.3%,χ²=2.276,P>0.05).At the time of admission,there was no significant difference in VAS score and Barthel index between the two groups (P>0.05).The VAS score and Barthel index of the study group were significantly better than those of the control group at 6 months after operation (P<0.01).The operation time ［(94.7±15.3)min vs (99.2±21.4) min］,hospitalization time ［(3.2±0.4)d vs (5.8±1.2)d］,fracture healing time ［(9.4±1.1) weeks vs (11.8±1.4) weeks］ of the study group was significantly shorter than those of the control group,medical expenses ［(18 225.2±1 636.3) yuan vs (21 230±2 275.3) yuan］ of the study group were significantly less than that of the control group(all P<0.01). Conclusion In the treatment of patients with ankle fracture and dislocation,the effect of emergency surgery is ideal.
