Syndesmotic Malreduction after Ankle ORIF; Is Radiography Sufficient?
BACKGROUND Ankle fractures, especially those resulting from external rotation mechanisms are associated with injury to the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. Some authors have recommended performing CT scanning after open ankle surgery to evaluate the reduction of syndesmosis. In this current study, we aimed to investigate the sensitivity of plain radiography in diagnosing syndesmosis malreductio...
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 کاملOvertightening of the syndesmosis revisited and the effect of syndesmotic malreduction on ankle dorsiflexion.
BACKGROUND Ankle syndesmotic injuries are a significant source of morbidity and require anatomic reduction to optimize outcomes. Although a previous study concluded that maximal dorsiflexion during syndesmotic fixation was not required, methodologic weaknesses existed and several studies have demonstrated improved ankle dorsiflexion after removal of syndesmotic screws. The purposes of the curre...
متن کاملLagged Syndesmotic Fixation: Our Clinical Experience.
Ankle fractures are very common, and although algorithms are in place for osseous management, consensus has not been reached regarding treatment of associated ligamentous injuries. Although tibiofibular syndesmotic stabilization can be done using different forms of fixation, the biomedical literature has long emphasized the risk of long-term restriction of ankle mobility with the use of lagged ...
