The author focused attention on the possibility of external fixation of the foot and distal leg. He uses an external device-MIDI. The use of this type of fixation device is suitable in all types of fractures and dislocations in the region of the foot and distal leg and reduces the period of treatment with variable use of free movement in the ankle joint or free movement of the toes after application of the external fixation device.
