Favored location of a stabilizing screw for syndesmotic diastasis: Recommendation based on clinical and theoretical considerations

Abstract: BackgroundAnkle injuries are common; however, simultaneous malleolar fractures and syndesmotic diastasis (SD) are relatively fewer. There is no consensus about the optimal technique for syndesmotic stabilization. We hypothesized that the optimal location of stabilization should be at the syndesmosis based on theoretical consideration.
