Compensation of Dynamic Fixation Systems in the Quality of Reduction of Distal Tibiofibular Joint in Acute Syndesmotic Complex Injuries: A CT-Based Analysis

Abstract: Background: There is an ongoing discussion on how to best stabilize syndesmotic injuries. Previous studies have indicated a better quality of reduction of the distal tibiofibular joint (DTFJ) for the suture button systems compared to syndesmotic screw fixation. Still, the reason for this superiority remains unclear. The aims of this retrospective study were to (1) analyze the deviation of the tibial and fibular drilling tunnels of the suture button system and (2) to compare these to the quality of reduction of… Show more

“…The surgical procedure and patient selection ( Figure 1 ) has been described in detail previously. 21 Overall, 147 adult patients were included from the authors’ ankle fracture database who underwent surgical stabilization of the syndesmosis using a suture-button system for an acute, unilateral ankle injury, with postoperative bilateral CT imaging. Patients with concomitant injuries outside the ankle or a known injury to the contralateral ankle were excluded.…”
