The Unstable Syndesmosis

2021
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.

Syndesmosis injuries in athletes

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2002
The 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.

Dynamically Unstable Syndesmosis Injuries

Orthopedics, 2013
Distal tibiofibular syndesmosis injuries are complex injuries that often result in extended loss of playing time for athletes. Unstable syndesmosis injuries are uniformly reduced and stabilized by numerous methods. Controversy arises from syndesmosis injuries that are stable on stress radiographs but functionally unstable with loading of the ankle ...

Methods of Tibiofibular Syndesmosis Fixation

Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja, 2021
The 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.

Stabilization of Ankle Syndesmosis Injuries With a Syndesmosis Screw

Foot & Ankle, 1989
A 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.

Prognosis of Ankle Syndesmosis Injury

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2014
Ankle syndesmosis injury has been associated with persistent pain and prolonged recovery; however, no predictors of prolonged recovery have been identified. The aims of this study were to establish prognosis for ankle syndesmosis injury compared with a lateral ankle sprain and to explore factors associated with prolonged recovery.Participants (n = 63 ...

Injuries to the Ankle Syndesmosis

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2014
➤ Despite being common, syndesmotic injuries are challenging to diagnose and treat.➤ Anatomic reduction of the ankle syndesmosis is critical for good clinical outcomes.➤ Intraoperative three-dimensional radiography and direct syndesmotic visualization can improve rates of anatomic reduction.➤ The so-called gold-standard syndesmotic screw fixation is ...

The Australian ankle syndesmosis injury survey

Injury, 2022
The ankle syndesmosis is frequently disrupted in ankle injuries, with higher incidence in concomitant ankle fractures. There is debate regarding the most appropriate surgical management of these injuries, with the development of suture-button devices challenging the conventional approach of surgical stabilisation with syndesmotic screws.

Revision of Syndesmosis Screw Fixation

Foot & Ankle Specialist, 2019
Background: Many syndesmosis screw fixations do not achieve success at the first attempt. Currently, there are no data available to evaluate revision of syndesmosis screw failure. Methods: A total of 160 consecutive patients who underwent syndesmosis screw fixation from 2014 to 2016 were reviewed.

Ankle Syndesmosis

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2014
Background: Syndesmosis sprains can contribute to chronic pain and instability, which are often indications for surgical intervention. The literature lacks sufficient objective data detailing the complex anatomy and localized osseous landmarks essential for current surgical techniques. Purpose: To qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the anatomy of
