Background: Computed tomography (CT) imaging has traditionally been considered the
gold standard for evaluation of syndesmostic reduction, but there is no uniformly accepted …

Background: The quality of reduction of the syndesmosis is an important factor in the
outcome of ankle fractures associated with a syndesmotic injury. The purpose of this study …

Background: The goal of this study was to objectively assess if rotational or translational
syndesmotic malreduction is associated with certain syndesmotic morphologies. Prior …

Background: Diagnosis and reduction of syndesmosis injuries in ankle fractures can be
challenging. Previous studies have demonstrated that standard radiographic measurements …

Background: The anatomy of the syndesmosis is variable, yet little is known on the
correlation between differences in anatomy and syndesmosis reduction results. The aim of …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the reliability and accuracy of existing
computed tomography (CT) methods for measuring the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis in …

Aims Malreduction of the syndesmosis has been reported in up to 52% of patients after
fixation of ankle fractures. Multiple radiological parameters are used to define malreduction; …

Previous studies have demonstrated the need for accurate reduction of ankle syndesmosis.
Measurement of syndesmosis is difficult on plain radiographs. A computed tomography (CT) …

Objectives: To compare the quality of syndesmotic reduction obtained using the incisura
versus the ankle articular surface as the visual cue. Secondarily, we evaluated the difference …

Background The optimal placement for a syndesmosis reduction clamp remains an open
question. This study compared the center-center axis, which localizes clamp placement …
