Panel Discussion on Literature Supported Treatments for Ankle Syndesmosis Injuries

At the Innovations in Foot and Ankle Surgery, Anish R. Kadakia, MD (Chicago, IL), moderates a panel that reviews the literature, evaluation, reduction, and treatment of the ankle syndesmosis using the Syndesmosis TightRope® XP implant, AITFL InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation procedure, and deltoid repair.

The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
