| Abstract: |
Ankle fracture in diabetic patients is a challenging condition owing to the inherent risk of complications with either operative or nonoperative treatment. However, operative treatment is considered the gold standard treatment for such cases. In this study, the hypothesis is that the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) could have a predictive value for postoperative outcomes and complications. Patients and methods A total of 34 diabetic patients with ankle fractures were included in this study. The patients are divided into two groups: the first group included patients with controlled diabetes (HbA1c |
