摘　　要：<strong>Introduction:</strong> Purpose to study prevalence of the intraarticular chondral lesion in the malleolar fracture by using ankle arthroscopy to fully understand the severity and complexity of the injury. <strong>Methods:</strong> Cross sectional study of 32 patients diagnosed with ankle fracture and undergone open reduction and internal fixation with arthroscopic assessment performed stimultaneously. The mechanism of injury, patterns of injury and intraarticular chondral injury were documented. <strong>Results:</strong> Mean age was 38 years (SD = 14.1, range 18 - 68 years). Eighteen were female and 14 were male. Fifteen involved syndesmostic distruption, 22 had Danis-Weber B injury and 16 had supination external rotation (SER). Ten (31.2%) had positive intraoperative cartilage injury. Significant correlation between the Lauge-Hansen classifications with positive findings with 6 had SER, 2 had pronation adduction and 2 had pronation external rotation.<strong> Conclusion: </strong>The prevalence of chondral injury in ankle fracture was quite high and may leads to poor outcome. Arthroscopy procedure allow surgeon to assess intraarticular surface and reduction of the ankle fracture which prompt further intervention that may improve the clinical outcomes and prognosis of the patients.<strong>Introduction:</strong> Purpose to study prevalence of the intraarticular chondral lesion in the malleolar fracture by using ankle arthroscopy to fully understand the severity and complexity of the injury. <strong>Methods:</strong> Cross sectional study of 32 patients diagnosed with ankle fracture and undergone open reduction and internal fixation with arthroscopic assessment performed stimultaneously.
