Synopsis
This prospective randomized study included 100 patients with unstable rotational ankle fractures and arthroscopically confirmed syndesmotic injury. Patients were randomized into trans-syndesmotic screw (SS) fixation (n=50) or suture button (SB) fixation (n=50), both performed under direct syndesmotic visualization. The primary outcome was the syndesmotic malreduction rate, assessed via bilateral p...
