Deep Infections After Syndesmotic Fixation With a Suture Button Device.
Suture button devices such as the TightRope (Arthrex, Naples, Florida) have been increasingly used for syndesmotic fixation of ankle fractures. Despite proposed advantages, prior studies have shown equivalent outcomes, with a theoretical decreased need for removal of hardware. Complications of suture button fixation of syndesmotic instability may be underreported and include lateral suture knot...
متن کاملA Novel Suture Button Construct for Acute Ankle Syndesmotic Injuries; A Prospective Clinical and Radiological Analysis.
Background: The importance of the syndesmosis in ankle stability is well recognized. Numerous means of fixation have been described for syndesmotic injuries including the suture button technique. Significant cost limits the use the commercially available options. We, therefore, designed a cheap and readily available alternative construct. We aim to assess the results of using a novel suture-...
متن کاملComparison of a novel Fiberwire-button construct versus metallic screw fixation in a syndesmotic injury model.
BACKGROUND There is minimal experience with less rigid syndesmotic fixation devices which may approximate the normal distal tibio-fibular mechanics during healing. This study evaluates the ability of a FiberWire-button implant (Arthrex, Naples, FL) to maintain syndesmotic reduction as compared with a metallic screw. METHODS Ten matched fresh-frozen cadaveric ankle pairs with intact ligaments ...
متن کاملBiomechanical Comparison of Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmotic Joint Fixation: Novel Suture Construct versus Metallic Screw Construct in Syndesmotic Injury Model
INTRODUCTION: Syndesmotic injuries of the ankle commonly occur via an external rotation force applied to the ankle joint. The effects of rigid or non-rigid fixation of the syndesmotic injury can be assessed by evaluating the three-dimensional kinematics behavior of tibiofibular diastasis. The specific aims of this study were: 1) to determine the physiological range of motion of the distal tibio...
متن کاملA systematic review of suture-button versus syndesmotic screw in the treatment of distal tibiofibular syndesmosis injury
BACKGROUND Now, using a suture-button device to treat distal tibiofibular syndesmotic injuries is overwhelming due to its advantages over screw fixation. Current systematic review was conducted to make a comparison between suture-button fixation and traditionally screw fixation in the treatment of syndesmotic injuries. The outcomes included functional outcomes, implant removal, implant failure,...
