Injuries to the tibiofibular syndesmosis
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2008The management of injury to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis remains controversial in the treatment of ankle fractures. Operative fixation usually involves the insertion of a metallic diastasis screw. There are a variety of options for the position and characterisation of the screw, the type of cortical fixation, and whether the screw should be ...

Syndesmosis injuries in athletes
Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2002The key to syndesmosis injuries is early recognition of the injury pattern and appropriate treatment. The clinician must be wary of the ankle sprain that is slow to heal. Radiographic criteria should be examined closely when considering the diagnosis; if surgery is warranted, attention to the health of the soft tissue envelope is key.

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2006
Physician awareness of ankle syndesmosis injuries is improving. The anatomy involved and the mechanism of injury are extremely relevant for the understanding and treatment of this type of injury. Examination under anesthesia may confirm the syndesmosis instability. Based on those findings, stabilization is the recommended approach.

Syndesmosis Sprains of the Ankle
Foot & Ankle, 1990A retrospective review of the clinical records and radiographs of 1344 ankle sprains occurring over a 41-month period at the United States Military Academy was performed. The incidence and severity of these sprains did not differ significantly from other studies with the exception of those injuries involving the tibiofibular ligaments.

Outcomes of Suture Button Repair of the Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmosis
Foot and Ankle International, 2011 Background: Recently, a suture button device has been advocated as a simple and effective method of repairing the syndesmosis. Proponents of the device have cited earlier weightbearing and elimination of the need for device removal as potential ...

The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis is an important functional structure to maintain ankle stability during weight-bearing and walking. Syndesmotic injuries account for 1–10% of all ankle sprains. They are more common in ankle fractures, found in about 10% of all ankle fractures and 25% of ankle fractures that require surgery.

Stabilization of Ankle Syndesmosis Injuries With a Syndesmosis Screw
Foot & Ankle, 1989A retrospective review was made of 30 patients who had disruption of the ankle syndesmosis that was treated at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center with a transfixation screw. Follow-up ranged from 3 months to 3 years. There were 21 pronation external rotation injuries and 9 Maisonneuve fractures.

Methods of Tibiofibular Syndesmosis Fixation
Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja, 2021The tibiofibular syndesmosis is a ligamentous structure connecting the distal ends of the tibia and fibula. This article presents and compares the available methods of treatment of syndesmosis injuries. Current publications from the online database PubMed and relevant available books are analysed and compared with AO Surgery guidelines.

Is It Possible to Overcompress the Syndesmosis?
The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2017The case we present suggests that it might be possible to overcompress the syndesmosis, causing subluxation of the talus within the ankle mortise. A 26-year-old female patient had had a Weber Type C ankle fracture internally fixed with a lateral plate and syndesmosis screws.
