Acute distal tibiofibular syndesmosis injury: a systematic review of suture-button versus syndesmotic screw repair [PDF]
International Orthopaedics, 2012 Purpose: Recently, a new suture-button fixation device has emerged for the treatment of acute distal tibiofibular syndesmotic injuries and its use is rapidly increasing. The current systematic review was undertaken to compare the biomechanical properties,

Foot and Ankle Specialist, 2020 Background. Syndesmotic disruption occurs in 20% of ankle fractures and requires anatomical reduction and stabilization to maximize outcomes. Although screw breakage is often asymptomatic, the breakage location can be unpredictable and result in painful ...

Syndesmotic Stabilization: Syndesmotic Screw Versus Flexible Fixation: A Systematic Review
The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2021Syndesmotic injuries are common injuries that occur in isolation or associated with ankle fractures. The suture button device fixation (SBDF) has become increasingly attractive to orthopedic surgeons as an alternative to metallic screw fixation (MSF) for syndesmotic fixation.

The Fate of Syndesmotic Screws
Foot & Ankle International, 2011Background: A standard protocol for the management of syndesmosis injuries has yet to be established. Debate persists regarding number of screws, screw diameter, number of cortices purchased, and the need for and timing of screw removal. The purpose of this study was to identify factors related to screw fixation that may lead to the ultimate failure of

Syndesmotic Screw Placement: A Biomechanical Analysis
Foot & Ankle International, 1997At the present time, syndesmotic screw fixation is recommended when there is a tibiofibular diastasis, a Maisonneuve fracture, or syndesmotic instability after fixation of distal tibia-fibula fractures. The aim/purpose of this study was to demonstrate the optimal level of syndesmotic screw placement before creation of a Maisonneuve fracture. Legs of 17

Syndesmotic screw fixation in tibiofibular diastasis
Nigerian Journal of Clinical Practice, 2018In chronic instability of syndesmosis, osteoarthritis and poor functional outcome were seen more prevalently. To avoid diastasis of ankle joint, the affected distal tibiofibular syndesmosis should be restored. We evaluated the clinical and radiological results of operative treatment of ankle fractures in patients who required syndesmotic stabilization ...

Effect of the Syndesmotic Screw on Ankle Motion
Foot & Ankle, 1989The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of syndesmotic screw fixation on ankle motion. Eight unpaired osteoligamentous cadaver ankles were tested. The study quantified ankle flexion, talar tilt, ankle drawer, and tibiotalar rotation for each specimen using an MTS biomechanical testing system.

REMOVAL OF BROKEN SYNDESMOTIC SCREWS: A TECHNICAL TIP
Orthopedics, 1994ABSTRACT A simple method of extracting broken distal tibial-fibular syndesmotic or cross-locking screws for intramedullary nails is illustrated. After extraction of the head portion of the broken screw, a blunt impactor is introduced through the vacant screw hole and abutted to the remaining portion of the screw tip.

Fate of the syndesmotic screw—Search for a prudent solution
Injury, 2015Ankle fractures are common injuries. Since the recognition of the importance of syndesmotic injury in ankle fractures, much of the scientific work has been focused on concomitant syndesmotic injury. Despite the invention of novel devices for restoration and maintenance of the congruent syndesmosis following syndesmotic injury, the metallic syndesmotic ...
