Differences in gait analysis and clinical outcome after dynamic fixation or screw fixation in acute syndesmosis tear: a prospective randomized pilot study

Acute syndesmosis tears can be treated by static screw or dynamic fixation. Various studies have compared these techniques regarding postoperative outcome. However, to our knowledge, no study has used 3D-instrumented gait analysis (IGA). We hypothesized that a dynamic fixation would perform non-infe...

Description
Summary:Acute syndesmosis tears can be treated by static screw or dynamic fixation. Various studies have compared these techniques regarding postoperative outcome. However, to our knowledge, no study has used 3D-instrumented gait analysis (IGA). We hypothesized that a dynamic fixation would perform non-inferior to screw fixation in terms of biomechanical and clinical outcomes.
