Tibioperoneal syndesmosis: diagnosis, fixation methods and arthroscopy

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 motion and directed exercise (EMADE) versus usual care post ankle fracture fixation: study protocol for a pragmatic randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Following surgical fixation of ankle fractures, the traditional management has included immobilisation for 6 weeks in a below-knee cast. However, this can lead to disuse atrophy of the affected leg and joint stiffness.

Syndesmosis injuries of the ankle [PDF]

Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2013
Ankle syndesmosis injuries are relatively frequent in sports, especially skiing, ice hockey, and soccer, accounting for 1 %-18 % of all ankle sprains. The evolution is unpredictable: When missed, repeated episodes of ankle instability may predispose to early degenerative changes, and frank osteoarthritis may ensue.

Lateral Plate Versus Isolated Lag Screw Fixation of Unstable Distal Fibula Fractures: A Systematic Review

Advances in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Lateral plate fixation, the current standard for fixation of unstable distal fibular fractures, can compromise the minimal soft tissue envelope resulting in poorer postoperative outcomes. Isolated lag screw fixation represents a novel method of distal fibula fixation. Methods Two independent reviewers conducted a literature search of PubMed,

Results of more than 11,000 scans with weightbearing CT : impact on costs, radiation exposure, and procedure time

, 2020
Background: Weightbearing CT (WBCT) has been proven to more precisely measure bone position than conventional weightbearing radiographic series (R) and conventional CT (CT).

Assessing Rotational Ankle Instability Through Postural Control Testing: Coronal Instability Outperforms Conventional Imaging

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Deltoid ligament (DL) injuries are increasingly recognized in chronic ankle instability (CAI), drawing clinical attention to rotational ankle instability (RAI). Cadaveric studies have shown that RAI can increase ankle rotation; however, current examination methods for RAI remain limited. As they neither provide adequate insight into

Full Return to Sport in All Athletes After Suture‐Button Fixation for Syndesmotic Injuries; However, Faster Recovery Was Seen in National Collegiate Athletic Association Football Players Compared with National Football League Players

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, Volume 7, Issue 6, December 2025.
Purpose To determine the return‐to‐sport (RTS) rate and time to RTS for National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) football players and National Football League (NFL) players after suture‐button fixation for the treatment of unstable tibiofibular syndesmotic injuries and to identify possible risk factors associated with a delay in RTS.

Novel Elastic Syndesmosis Hook Plate Fixation Versus Routine Screw Fixation for Syndesmosis Injury [PDF]

The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2018
Unstable external-rotation type ankle fractures with concomitant syndesmosis injury commonly occur. Syndesmosis screw fixation has long been regarded as a reference standard treatment for syndesmosis injury. However, its complications and biomechanical disadvantages have become controversial; thus, we designed a novel elastic syndesmosis hook plate ...

Arthroscopic Targeted Screw Placement: A Minimally Invasive Approach for Hindfoot Fractures

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 14, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Arthroscopic techniques have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional open reduction internal fixation in the treatment of foot and ankle fractures, offering minimally invasive methods to address intra‐articular fractures. These techniques provide direct visualization of the fracture site while preserving the soft tissue envelope and ...

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.
