A prospective case-control study of ankle fracture in postmenopausal women.

To the Editor—In the recent issue of the journal, Ho et al suggested that postmenopausal ankle fractures among Hong Kong elderly women were not associated with osteoporosis but could be explained by diabetic neuropathy. They also pointed out that the functional outcome of these patients was generally satisfactory if appropriate treatment was given. However, this local study was prone to several methodological defects.
