A Weber fracture is ankle fracture that falls into the Danis-Weber classification scale for ankle injuries.
Distal fibula fractures are the most common fracture type to the ankle due to trauma or sports injury, and are categorised on the extent of the fracture in relationship to the joint mortise of the distal fibula.
The classification scheme is simple to use and widely used in primary care and treatment.
Type A fractures are horizontal avulsion fractures below the mortise. They respond to treatment by closed reduction and casting unless accompanied by a displaced medial malleolus fracture.
Type B fracture is a spiral fibular fracture commencing at the mortise. This type of fracture occurs secondary to external rotational forces.
Type C fracture is above the level of the mortise and disrupts the ligamentous attachment between the fibula and the tibia distal to the fracture. These fractures require surgery for pins to be inserted.
