Influence of quality of reduction using radiological criteria on kinematics and kinetics in ankle fractures with unstable syndesmotic injury
Although, the data did not show that radiological reduction criteria have a statistically significant effect on active functional outcome after a mean follow up time of 5.7 years, tendencies for a better outcome of patients that met the criteria could be seen. It also must be taken into consideration that results are limited by case number and allocation ratio, which made a sub-analysis of the separate reduction criteria unfeasible.
