Recto-Vesical Lithotomy — Bozeman's Button Suture

A Case of Vesical Calculus; Lateral Lithotomy: Recovery

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...

Suture Button Fixation for Syndesmosis Injuries: Review of the Literature

Syndesmosis injuries -also known as high ankle sprainshave an increasing popularity because of an increased awareness of diagnosis. Different from lateral ankle sprains, mechanism of injury mostly involves external rotation, eversion and excessive dorsiflexion. Other mechanisms can also cause sydesmosis injuries. Because of high levels of missed injuries the real prevalence of syndesmosis injur...

Surgical Management of Urinary Incontinence Associated with Recto-vesical Fistulas: the Transanal Rectal Flap Approach

Synopsis of Video Urinary incontinence associated with recto-urinary fistulas, although uncommon, is a devastating complication of lower urinary tract surgery. The anatomic location of the fistula renders their repair significantly challenging. Over the years, various surgical techniques have been proposed including transabdominal, perineal, and transanal sphincteric, posterior sagittal, transr...

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-...
