Abstract:
Objective: To explore the anatomy of tibiofibular syndesmosis for the clinic treatment of tib-iofibular syndesmosis injury. Methods: Twelve embalmed adult lower legs were selected. The configurations , structures and plane which ligaments attached to were observed. Results:Tibiofibular syndesmosis consists of ligaments, plica and synostosis. It's tower-shaped. The plane which ligaments attached to has a shape of swallow's tail. Conclusion:Tibiofibular syndesmosis is strong and elastic. The fixation of injuried tibiofibular syndesmosis should be elastic.
