Abstract
Presented is a case report of a tibialis posterior tendon rupture associated with a closed ankle fracture. The treatment is open reduction and fixation at the bony fragments with primary repair of the tendon. This injury, although rare, illustrates that soft-tissue injuries must be considered in the management of unusual or complex fractures.Keywords
