A TightRope® syndesmosis fixation system refers a to a more recent technique for syndesmosis fixation for distal tibiofibular syndesmotic injuries.
This uses a non-absorbable fiber wire held between two or more cortical metal buttons at the medial and lateral aspects. It may or may not be used in conjunction with other internal fixator plates and screws.
