Brief Summary
In this study, syndesmosis injuries were detected in 143 of the patients who came to Atatürk University Faculty of Medicine, Orthopedics and Traumatology clinic from October 2017 to October 2021 with ankle fractures. 33 of these patients couldn't followed for various reasons. Screw or suture buttone method was applied on 110 patients. And patients were examined with lots of data to compare their results. A retrospective study was conducted.
