Syndesmoseinstabilität
Syndesmoseinstabilität refers to the disruption of the syndesmosis, a joint that connects the tibia and fibula bones in the lower leg. This joint is stabilized by a complex of ligaments, including the anterior and posterior tibiofibular ligaments, the interosseous membrane, and the inferior transverse ligament. Injury to these ligaments can lead to increased mobility and instability between the tibia and fibula.

Diagnosis usually involves a physical examination to assess for tenderness, swelling, and specific signs of syndesmotic
Treatment for syndesmoseinstabilität depends on the severity of the injury. Mild cases may be managed non-surgically
