Abstract Background/Aims The purpose of this study is to evaluate risk factors of deep
infection following pilon fractures. Methods This investigation was performed after gathering
a six-year retrospective database from a single academic trauma center. Results These
include an overall incidence of deep infection of 16.1%(57/355). Deep infection was
diagnosed at an average of 88 days (±64 days) from initial injury with a range of 10–281
days. Development of deep infection occurred in 23.2%(33/142) of open fractures, vs …
