Weber C ankle fractures with tibiofibular diastasis: syndesmosis-only fixation
OBJECTIVES To evaluate syndesmosis-only fixation in Weber C ankle fractures with tibiofibular diastasis and to assess the need for additional fibular fixation. METHODS Twenty-one patients with Weber C ankle fractures and tibiofibular diastasis were followed for at least 24 months after treatment. In treatment of the Weber C fractures, only a syndesmosis screw was used through a mini open late...
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 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 کاملDeep 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 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,...
