The hook test is a widely used intraoperative method for assessing syndesmosis stability. However, there are no recommendations regarding the force required to perform this test. Furthermore, the reliability of the test is unclear. Ten experienced surgeons performed hook tests on a cadaver bone model.…
Plantar plate positioning has been demonstrated as biomechanically superior. However, some operators remain resentful about the morbidity of the surgical approach. To provide improved plate fixation for first tarsometatarsal joint arthrodesis with respect to the tibialis anterior tendon, a medio-plantar…
In the treatment of ankle fractures, complications such as wound healing problems following open reduction and internal fixation are a major problem. An innovative alternative to this procedure offers a more minimally invasive nail stabilization. The purpose of this biomechanical study was to clarify…
Insufficient fixation of a posterior malleolus fracture (PM) can lead to posttraumatic complications such as osteoarthritis and chronic pain. The purpose of this biomechanical study was to test the hypothesis of whether the direction of PM screw fixation has an impact on the primary stability of osteosynthesis…
