Ankle sprains are mainly benign lesions, but if not well addressed can evolve into
permanent disability. A non-treated lateral, syndesmotic or medial ankle instability can …

Objectives To give a systematic overview of current diagnostic imaging options for
assessment of the distal tibio-fibular syndesmosis. Materials and methods A systematic …

Ideal management of the various presentations of syndesmotic injury remains controversial
to this day. High quality evidentiary science on this topic is rare, and numerous existing …

Aim Comparison of unfixed, CRIF, and ORIF of the posterior malleolus fragment (PMF)
regarding the frequency of trans-syndesmotic fixation and quality of reduction in trimalleolar …

The tibiofibular syndesmosis is a fibrous joint essential for ankle stability, whence the
classical comparison with a mortise. Syndesmosis lesions are quite frequent in ankle …

Objectives To determine if exercise-based rehabilitation reduces reinjury following acute
ankle sprain. Our secondary objective was to assess if rehabilitation efficacy varies …

Objective To this day, diagnostic standards and uniform definition for acute, isolated
syndesmotic injuries are missing. The aim of the current study was to conduct a systematic …

Forced external rotation is hypothesized as the key mechanism of syndesmotic ankle
injuries, inducing a three‐dimensional deviation from the normal distal tibiofibular joint …

Purpose Acute syndesmotic ankle injuries continue to impose a diagnostic dilemma and it
remains unclear whether weightbearing and/or external rotation should be added during the …

The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (DTFS) is more frequently injured than previously
thought. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment is essential to avoid long term …
