Explainer, "Michelle Tsai incorrectly used the term syndesmosis as a synonym for" high ankle sprain. " ❋ Unknown (2009)
"But first reports are that it's not syndesmosis, which is a good starting point because that's the sinister ankle injury," Deans said. ❋ Unknown (2011)
Delport sustained a 'syndesmosis' injury to his left ankle during the Boks 'match against Zimbabwe on Day 1 of the George event. ❋ Unknown (2009)
But Myerson attached the plate and screws to the tibia and fibula to keep the space between them stable so the syndesmosis injury can heal. ❋ Unknown (2005)
With Owens, after his deltoid tore, the syndesmosis did, too, and the fibula fractured. ❋ Unknown (2005)
The incudostapedial joint is an enarthrosis, surrounded by an articular capsule; some observers have described an articular disk or meniscus in this joint; others regard the joint as a syndesmosis. ❋ Unknown (1918)
It is continuous below with the interosseous ligament of the tibiofibular syndesmosis, and presents numerous perforations for the passage of small vessels. ❋ Unknown (1918)
This syndesmosis is formed by the rough, convex surface of the medial side of the lower end of the fibula, and a rough concave surface on the lateral side of the tibia. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The anterior ligament of the lateral malleolus (Fig. 355) is a flat, triangular band of fibers, broader below than above, which extends obliquely downward and lateralward between the adjacent margins of the tibia and fibula, on the front aspect of the syndesmosis. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The ligaments may consequently be subdivided into three sets: (1) those of the Tibiofibular articulation; (2) the interosseous membrane; (3) those of the Tibiofibular syndesmosis. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The malleoli tightly embrace the talus in all positions of the joint, so that any slight degree of side-to-side movement which may exist is simply due to stretching of the ligaments of the talofibular syndesmosis, and slight bending of the body of the fibula. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The posterior ligament of the lateral malleolus (Fig. 355), smaller than the preceding, is disposed in a similar manner on the posterior surface of the syndesmosis. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The Perforating Branch (ramus perforans; anterior peroneal artery) pierces the interosseous membrane, about 5 cm. above the lateral malleolus, to reach the front of the leg, where it anastomoses with the anterior lateral malleolar; it then passes down in front of the tibiofibular syndesmosis, gives branches to the tarsus, and anastomoses with the lateral tarsal. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The first form is termed a symphysis (Fig. 298), the second a syndesmosis. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Tibiofibular Syndesmosis (syndesmosis tibiofibularis; inferior tibiofibular articulation). ❋ Unknown (1918)
This is obtained by a slight outward rotatory movement of the lower end of the fibula and a stretching of the ligaments of the syndesmosis; this lateral movement is facilitated by a slight gliding at the tibiofibular articulation, and possibly also by the bending of the body of the fibula. ❋ Unknown (1918)
It then runs behind the tibiofibular syndesmosis and divides into lateral calcaneal branches which ramify on the lateral and posterior surfaces of the calcaneus. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Brett Morris suffered a syndesmosis ankle ligament injury - or high ankle sprain - and fell to the ground with the ball in his hands in the 54th minute of Brisbane Broncos. ❋ Unknown (2012)
Inglis is recovering from minor off-season knee surgery and has not played since sustaining ankle syndesmosis in South Sydney's defeat to Brisbane in September. ❋ Unknown (2011)
