Die distale Tibiofibulare Syndesmose ist ein einzigartiges syndesmotisches Gelenk, das durch eine Vielzahl von Bändern kraftvoll verbunden ist, um die Integrität des Sprunggelenks zu erhalten. Die distale Anatomie der beiden Knochen ist so gestaltet, dass die mediale Oberfläche der distalen Fibula in eine Rille auf der lateralen Oberfläche der distalen Tibia passt, die als Incisura fibularis bezeichnet wird und diesem Gelenk die knöcherne Stabilität bietet. Der vordere Teil dieses Gelenks wird durch das vordere untere distale Tibiofibulare Band (AITFL), der hintere Aspekt durch das hintere untere distale Tibiofibulare Band (PITFL) und das transversale Tibiofibulare Band stabilisiert. Direkt zwischen den benachbarten Oberflächen der Tibia und Fibula befindet sich das interosseöse Band, das sich über die gesamte Länge der Fibula erstreckt.
Das PITFL ist bei weitem das stärkste Band in diesem Komplex und am wenigsten wahrscheinlich zu reißen. Wenn es jedoch einmal gerissen ist, ist es am wahrscheinlichsten mit schweren Rotations- oder Luxationsverletzungen des Sprunggelenks und damit verbundener Sprunggelenkinstabilität verbunden.

The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis is a unique syndesmotic joint, powerfully bound by a variety of ligaments to maintain the integrity of the ankle mortise. The distal anatomy of the two bones are created in such a way that the medial surface of the distal fibula fits into a groove on the lateral surface of the distal tibia called the incisura fibularis which offers the bony stability to this joint. The anterior part of this joint is stabilised by the Anterior Inferior Distal Tibio-Fibular ligament (AITFL), the posterior aspect by the Posterior Inferior Distal Tibio-Fibular ligament (PITFL) and the transverse Tibio-Fibular ligament. Directly between the contiguous surfaces of the tibia and fibula is the interosseous ligament which extends throughout the length of the fibula.
The PITFL is by far the strongest ligament in this complex and is the least likely to be ruptured. Once ruptured however it is most likely to be associated with severe rotational or dislocating injuries of the ankle and associated ankle instability.
The syndesmotic ligaments stabilise the fibula with respect to both talus and tibia, whilst allowing a degree of rotation of the fibula, required in particular during full ankle dorsiflexion when the widest portion of the talus comes into the mortise. As with any ligament injury the key point is not solely whether these ligaments have been injured, but rather their stability in determining the need for treatment. If instability is not addressed, high contact pressures at the joints surface ensue and early degenerative change occurs in most patients.
Traditional fixation of unstable syndesmotic injuries has been with two parallel, non-compressive, small fragment screws placed across the ankle at the level of the tibial incisura. Such fixation also requires a decision as to whether the screws need to be removed and furthermore, the optimal timing for such removal.
The use of a Arthrex tightrope implant, is far more physiological in terms of the way the syndesmosis is held, allowing more normal movement at the ankle mortise. It is a simple and ingenious implant that has proved its worth not only in syndesmotic ankle reconstruction but also in the shoulder and forefoot. It consists of two metal buttons that rest on the respective bony surfaces to be approximated, and a robust four stranded Fibrewire suture construct which links these buttons. The design allows easy apposition of the buttons towards each other by the effective “slip-knot” set up of the suture strands.
