Ankle syndesmotic instability assessment using a three-dimensional distance mapping algorithm: a cadaveric pilot WBCT study

نویسندگان

چکیده

Objective: This cadaveric pilot study was to develop a weight bearing computed tomography (WBCT) three-dimensional (3D) distance mapping algorithm that would allow for detection of syndesmotic instability. Methods: Pilot study, two specimens. Syndesmotic instability induced by release all ligaments through conventional lateral ankle approach. WBCT imaging under simulated acquired before and after destabilization. incisura gutter distances were assessed using 3D algorithm. Results: We found increases in the overall mean injured syndesmosis when compared pre-injury state, color coded maps allowed easy interpretation widening following ligament sectioning destabilization joint. Conclusion: The has potential mild with relatively ease color-coded maps. Level Evidence V; Cadaveric Study.

Arthroscopy-assisted repair of latent syndesmotic instability of the ankle.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the results of repair of latent ankle syndesmotic instability and widening by an arthroscopic and percutaneous approach. METHODS This case study series presents 6 patients who presented with latent syndesmotic instability after sustaining a rotational ankle injury. All 6 patients underwent arthroscopy-assisted repair and percutaneous fixati...

Ankle syndesmotic injury.

Ankle syndesmotic injury does not necessarily lead to ankle instability; however, the coexistence of deltoid ligament injury critically destabilizes the ankle joint. Syndesmotic injury may occur in isolation or may be associated with ankle fracture. In the absence of fracture, physical examination findings suggestive of injury include ankle tenderness over the anterior aspect of the syndesmosis...

A topology control algorithm for autonomous underwater robots in three-dimensional space using PSO

Recently, data collection from seabed by means of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN) has attracted considerable attention. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are increasingly used as UWSNs in underwater missions. Events and environmental parameters in underwater regions have a stochastic nature. The target area must be covered by sensors to observe and report events. A ‘topology cont...

A 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-...
