Summary

Traumatic lesion of the superior tibio-fibular joint is probably less unusual than the paucity of the published reports suggests. Complete rupture of joint ligaments is followed by forward, backward or rarely proximal dislocation of the head of the fibula. In most instances treatment is easily accomplished. 3 cases are described.

Zusammenfassung

Kapselbandläsionen des proximalen Tibio-Fibulargelenks ohne Begleitfraktur sind möglicherweise häufiger als in der Literatur bisher beschrieben. Komplette Kapselrupturen manifestieren sich überwiegend in vorderen, seltener hinteren oder oberen Luxationen des Fibulaköpfchens. Die Behandlung bietet gewöhnlich keine Probleme. Nach Schilderung dreier eigener Beobachtungen wird auf die Unfallgenese ausführlich eingegangen.
