Chronic instability of the anterior syndesmosis of the ankle: Biomechanical, kinematical, radiological and clinical aspects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis is concerned with chronic anterior instability of the tibiofibular syndesmosis of the ankle. The ankle plays a fundamental role in locomotion. It consists of the talocrural and distal tibiofibular joint. The latter is a syndesmosis, a fibrous

Is Tenderness of Medial Malleolus Circumference a Sign of Syndesmosis Injuries?

open access: yes, 2023
Background: Syndesmosis injuries occur in approximately 10% of all ankle fractures. The integrity of the deltoid ligament is important in the decision of surgical treatment of lateral malleolus fractures.

Physiologic Motion in the Intact and Unstable Syndesmosis During Plantigrade Weightbearing in Controlled Ankle Motion Boots.

open access: yes, 2023
Consensus has not been reached for the optimal postoperative care after high ankle sprain and syndesmotic fixation. A potential drawback of earlier return to activity is greater instability of the ankle and fixation failure.

A Novel Elastic Wrap for Syndesmotic Reduction with Post-Operative CT Scan Analysis

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2019
Category: Ankle, Trauma Introduction/Purpose: Syndesmosis malreductions occur in up to 50% of patients. Several studies concluded that the position of the reduction tines of the periarticular clamp determines the final fibular position.

3-D Computed Tomography (CT) Comparison Of The Pre-injury And Post-repair Syndesmosis To Assess Anatomic Reduction

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2016
Objectives: Historically, unstable injuries to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis have been repaired with syndesmotic screws. However, newer repair techniques with inherently flexible implants, including suture-button constructs, may be less susceptible
