Abstract
The clinical picture of ruptures of the ligaments about the tibio-fibular syndesmosis are presented. The diagnosis should be based on the history and clinical examination. Arthrography of the ankle confirms the diagnosis. We describe a surgical method of stabilizing this affected joint, wherein local bone is used to arthrodese the tibio-fibular joint.Mesh:
