[Tibiofibular mobility and arthrosis in patients with postoperative ossification in the area of syndesmosis of the upper ankle joint].

Subject of this investigation is the influence of postoperative tibio-fibular ossification on the development of arthrosis of the ankle. Changes of the biomechanics of the joint can be evaluated by computed tomography. Posttraumatic and postoperative changes of the mobility of the fibular in relation to the tibia may be quantified by CT investigation and evaluated with respect to the development of arthrosis.
