Anterior Incisura Fibularis Corner Landmarks Can Safely Validate the Optimal Distal Tibiofibular Reduction in Malleolar Fractures—Prospective CT Study [PDF]
Background: Distal tibiofibular injuries are common in patients with malleolar fractures. Malreduction is frequently reported in the literature and is mainly caused by insufficient intraoperative radiological evaluation. In this direction, we performed a

Incisura groove depth is associated with reduced rotational fibular displacement after syndesmotic injury: cadaveric validation of an automated three-dimensional incisura morphometric pipeline [PDF]
BackgroundThe tibial incisura provides the osseous constraint in which the fibula is seated at the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. The morphology of this constraint varies substantially between individuals, making it plausible that incisura geometry ...

MRI-based torsion measurement of the lower limb is a reliable and valid alternative for CT measurement: a prospective study. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to compare MRI‐based torsion measurements of the lower limb to a well‐established CT‐based assessment in a prospective inter‐ and intraindividual approach. Methods A total of 26 patients (age 28.8 years ± 11.0) were enrolled beginning in January 2021 until August 2022.

Shapes of distal tibiofibular syndesmosis are associated with risk of recurrent lateral ankle sprains [PDF]
Distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (DTS) has wide anatomic variability in depth of incisura fibularis and shape of tibial tubercles. We designed a 3-year prospective cohort study of 300 young physical training soldiers in an Army Physical Fitness School ...

A reliable radiographic measurement for evaluation of normal distal tibiofibular syndesmosis: a multi‐detector computed tomography study in adults [PDF]
Background Syndesmotic injury may be difficult to diagnose, and radiological evaluation is very important. The purpose of this study was to offer a series of reliable and repeatable normal tibiofibular syndesmosis parameters in diagnosing injuries of the

Validation of a software-based torsional measurement method of the lower limb: A retrospective study. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate a software‐based measurement tool of computed tomography imaging to assess torsional alignment of the lower limb—usually used for patients with posttraumatic deformities and patellofemoral issues—and compare these measurements with manual measurements of two experienced raters.

Coronal alignment does not enable to predict the degree of femoral and tibial torsion. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Malalignment of the lower extremity can affect one, two or all three anatomic planes. We hypothesized an influence between the malalignment of the coronal and axial planes. Methods A total of 356 lower extremities of 226 patients were included.

Stem albatrosses wandered far: a new species of <i>Plotornis</i> (Aves, Pan-Diomedeidae) from the earliest Miocene of New Zealand. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Albatrosses are among the most intensely studied groups of living birds, yet their fossil record remains sparse. Despite modern albatrosses being more abundant and widespread in the Southern Hemisphere, the vast majority of fossil albatrosses identified to date come from Northern Hemisphere localities. Here, we describe Plotornis archaeonautes
