Dislocation and migration through the tissues, especially when used for shoulder girdle fractures, have been reported previously. K-wire migration after surgery of pelvis and knee was reported before. To the authors' knowledge, broken and migrated K-wires after ankle fractures were not reported before. Here, we report a case with broken and migrated K-wires after open reduction and internal fixation of a medial malleolar fracture.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAnkleFractureK-wireMigrationMigration of broken K-wires into the achilles tendon from a ostheosynthesed medial malleolar fractureArticle211555710.1007/s00590-010-0657-x2-s2.0-79751533750Q2WOS:000286774500011Q4
