Several large studies have suggested that the incidence of<unk> s has increased since the 1960s. The incidence is highest in elderly women over the age of 65, but importantly<unk> s are not considered as fragility fractures. In terms of fracture type, isolated malleolar fractures are most common (two-thirds of fractures); bimalleolar fractures occur in roughly 25% of patients while trimalleolar fractures occur in 5-10%. Open fractures are rare, compromising 2% of all<unk> s. In children,<unk> s occur in about 1 per 1000 per year.
