Abstract

Traditionally, surgical treatment of the syndesmotic injuries requires an open procedure with direct visualization of the anatomical reduction of the joint. However, the direct visualization of the reduction can be achieved by arthroscopy with minor incisions avoiding damage to the soft tissues. The aim of the study is to describe the surgical technique for the treatment of the acute unstable syndesmotic injuries without fibular fractures through an arthroscopic reduction and a percutaneous fixation with suture-button.
Level of Evidence: V, surgical technique.
