I'm seeking advice on coding a triplanar fracture of the ankle as follows:
1 - spral oblique fracture of the distal fubular shaft
2 - posterior distal tibial fracture
3 - along with a medial malleolar fracture
All closed and treated with cast and crutches - no open procedure required

The body of the MRI reads distal fibular shaft extends to the metaphysis but does not involve the growth plate.

Thank you!!
