Rotational Dynamics of the Distal Tibiofibular Joint After Operative Treatment of Ankle Fractures With Syndesmosis Injury. [PDF]

Foot Ankle Int
Background: Syndesmosis injury healing remains poorly understood, despite its high prevalence in ankle fractures. Unstable syndesmosis is commonly addressed with either syndesmosis screw (SS) or suture button (SB) fixation, and up to 20% of operated ...

Instability of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis

, 2023
The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (DTFS) is more frequently injured than previously thought. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment is essential to avoid long term complications like chronic instability, early osteoarthritis and residual pain ...

The Impact of Suture Button Removal in Syndesmosis Fixation

, 2021
The suture button (SB) device was introduced to negate the need for routine hardware removal in the treatment of syndesmosis injuries. However, a considerable SB removal rate has been reported, and the impact of removal is unknown.

The Radiologic Change of Distal Tibiofibular Joint Following the Removal of the Transfixing Screw After Syndesmotic Injury

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2017
Category: Ankle, Trauma Introduction/Purpose: Transfixing screw fixation is required after anatomic reduction of syndesmosis disruption. An accurate anatomic reduction is related to good functional outcome.

Direct visualization of the syndesmosis for evaluation of syndesmotic disruption

OTA International, 2018
. Objectives:. Radiologic criteria for syndesmosis instability evaluation remain controversial and direct visualization (DV) of the distal tibiofibular articulation is an alternative diagnostic method worthy of further investigation. We speculate that DV

Biomechanical Efficacy of Three Methods for the Fixation of Posterior Malleolar Fractures: A Three-Dimensional Finite Element Study

Diagnostics, 2023
Introduction: We investigated the biomechanical behaviour of different fixations of the tibial posterior malleolus (TPM), simulating distinct situations of involvement of the tibiotalar articular surface (TTAS) through a finite element model (FEM ...
