Complications following surgical treatment of ankle fractures in the elderly: can they be avoided?

“`html

Clinical Trial: Complications following surgical treatment of ankle fractures in the elderly: can they be avoided?

Key Findings:

Geriatric patients (65 years and older) have higher complication rates following surgical treatment of ankle fractures.
Commonly used diagnostic and treatment methods do not account for the specific needs of elderly patients, increasing the risk of complications.
Concomitant diseases are a major contributing factor to postoperative complications in both non-geriatric and geriatric patients.
Delaying surgery and managing pre-existing medical conditions before the operation can have a positive impact on postoperative outcomes.
