A bibliographic review on the traumatic injuries of the distal tibiofibular joint was made. Aspects such as anatomy, mechanism of production and clinical picture were reminded and updated. The imaging studies were specially emphasized and the use and interpretation of the simple X-ray was underlined. To conclude this review, the variants of the treatment for isolated ligamentous injuries or for those associated with the ankle fracture, as well as their postoperative management, were exposed.
