Endoscopic Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmosis Arthrodesis

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2016
Chronic distal tibiofibular syndesmosis disruption can be managed by endoscopic arthrodesis of the syndesmosis. This is performed through the proximal anterolateral and posterolateral portals. The scar tissue and bone block are resected to facilitate the

Arthroscopically Assisted Reduction of Sagittal-Plane Disruption of Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmosis

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2019
Injuries to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis can occur in conjunction with ankle fractures. Sagittal instability of the syndesmosis is more critical than coronal instability and must be taken into account when considering reduction and fixation of the

Tibioperoneal syndesmosis: diagnosis, fixation methods and arthroscopy [PDF]

Revista Información Científica, 2023
Introduction: tibioperoneal syndesmosis injuries are frequent both in isolation or associated with posterior malleolus fractures. Clinical diagnosis is confirmed on imaging studies. Fixation methods might be rigid or dynamic as well. Objective: provide

Early weightbearing after dynamic stabilization of the ankle syndesmosis: A retrospective case series

Foot & Ankle Surgery: Techniques, Reports & Cases, 2023
Ankle fractures with syndesmosis disruption present a challenge for foot and ankle surgeons. After open reduction internal fixation (ORIF), conventional postoperative treatment requires a period of immobilization and non-weightbearing, which if prolonged,

What is the frequency of anterior syndesmosis injury in posterior malleolus fracture?

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Posterior malleolus fractures may be fixed to restore syndesmosis stability. However, these fractures are often accompanied by ruptures of other ligaments that stabilize the syndesmosis.

The Modified Posterolateral Approach for Fixation of Posterior Malleolus Fractures Associated with Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmosis Injury – Description of Surgical Technique.

Journal of the Foot & Ankle
Posterior malleolus fractures are a challenge in the treatment of ankle injuries and, if not treated properly, can lead to unfavorable results, especially when associated with syndesmosis injury.

Techniques of Arthroscopic Anterior Syndesmosis Stabilization. [PDF]

Arthrosc Tech
Abstract Ankle sprains are among the most common sports‐related musculoskeletal injuries. Injury to the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, resulting in anterior syndesmotic instability, is frequently overlooked and inadequately treated. The purpose of this technical note is to (1) describe clinical examination maneuvers used to assess anterior ...

Objective Assessment of Syndesmosis Stability Using the Hook Test [PDF]

, 2023
The hook test is a widely used intraoperative method for assessing syndesmosis stability. However, there are no recommendations regarding the force required to perform this test. Furthermore, the reliability of the test is unclear.
