Congenital distal tibiofibular synostosis
Congenital distal tibiofibular synostosis is a very rare anomaly. The cases of congenital tibiofibular synostosis reported in the literature so far have been confined to the proximal tibiofibular joint. We present an unusual case of tibiofibular synostosis that involves the distal part of the tibia and fibula based on characteristic X-ray, CT, and MRI findings.
متن کاملSynostosis of the Proximal Tibiofibular Joint
The incidence of synostosis of the proximal tibiofibular joint (TFJ) was assessed among 1029 patients examined for osteoarthritis of the knee in a 4-year period. Radiographic evidence of a synostosis of the proximal TFJ was demonstrated in 3 knees (3 patients). The synostosis appeared incidental and was not the cause of symptoms in any of them. These patients were further examined with MRI and/...
متن کاملTibiofibular synostosis in a professional football player.
We present an unusual cause of anterior tibial pain in a 24-year-old professional international football player who was found to have a synostosis of the middle-third of the diaphysis of the tibia and fibula. This is a rarely described phenomenon. Conservative treatment is the recommended treatment of choice, but this failed in our patient. Resection produced resolution of symptoms; he remained...
متن کاملDistal tibiofibular synostosis after ankle fracture. A 14-year follow-up study.
Over an eight-year period up to 1983, a total of 322 consecutive patients had operations for ankle fractures; 176 were Weber type B and 128 type C. We were able to review 230 of these patients after a mean follow-up of six years (1 to 11) including 128 with Weber B and 102 with Weber C fractures. We used an ankle score which combined symptoms and clinical and radiological findings, with a maxim...
متن کاملDistal tibiofibular radiological overlap
OBJECTIVES Overlap between the distal tibia and fibula has always been quoted to be positive. If the value is not positive then an injury to the syndesmosis is thought to exist. Our null hypothesis is that it is a normal variant in the adult population. METHODS We looked at axial CT scans of the ankle in 325 patients for the presence of overlap between the distal tibia and fibula. Where we th...
