After the surgeon reduced the fracture, an incision was made over the posterolateral border of the distal fibula and the syndesmotic injury was reduced into anatomical configuration. K-wire and screws were then placed across and through the syndesmosis to stabilize it.

The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis, between the fibula and tibia, is formed by three major ligaments: the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL), the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (PITFL), and the interosseous tibiofibular ligament (ITFL).
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S93. 432A became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of S93.
Abstract. A syndesmosis is defined as a fibrous joint in which two adjacent bones are linked by a strong membrane or ligaments. This definition also applies for the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis, which is a syndesmotic joint formed by two bones and four ligaments.
Abstract. Syndesmosis injuries occur when there is a disruption of the distal attachment of the tibia and fibula. These injuries occur commonly (up to 18% of ankle sprains), and the incidence increases in the setting of athletic activity. Recognition of these injuries is key to preventing long-term morbidity.

[1] It includes an anterior and posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, the tibiofibular interosseous ligament and the transverse tibiofibular ligament and the membrane interrosseus.
The tibiofibular syndesmosis is a complex fibrous joint composed of multiple ligaments and a broad fibrous interosseous membrane that spans between the tibia and fibula throughout the length of both bones.
What is the syndesmosis ligament? The syndesmosis is a fibrous joint held together by ligaments. It's located near the ankle joint, between the tibia, or shinbone, and the distal fibula, or outside leg bone. That's why it's also called the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis.
A syndesmosis is a slightly mobile fibrous joint in which bones such as the tibia and fibula are joined together by connective tissue. An example is the distal tibiofibular joint. Injuries to the ankle syndesmosis are commonly known as a "high ankle sprain".
a rupture of the interosseus ligament between the distal tibia and fibula (syndesmosis), and the interosseous membrane up to the level of the fracture. The medial side fails first in tension, either through the deltoid ligament (C1.
The first ligament is called the anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, or AITFL, which runs in front of the two bones. The second is called the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament, or PITFL, which runs in the back.
