Isolated syndesmotic injury: treatment with suture button system—retrospective cohort study
The suture button system demonstrated good outcomes in allowing physiological motion, low malreduction rates, and minimizing reoperation needs. The present results indicate a promising safety profile and functional recovery, despite limitations such as small sample size and lack of patient-reported outcome measures.
