Hopefully, Weightbearing in Ankle FraX Trial results will help the debate for ankles. But do we need a randomised study around the knee? Complex Fractures JLA PSP and The Royal College of Surgeons of England team in July seemed to think so! Either way - KNEE Study is probably the next step. Looking forward to this kicking off soon 🦵!
