A biochemical analysis of the squeeze test for sprains of the syndesmotic ligaments of the ankle.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In the decision-making process toward an amputation of the lower extremity, knowledge about patient-related outcomes after amputation and rehabilitation is important. We have not found a systematic review that provides this knowledge for Syme amputation. The aim of this study was to present an overview of ou...
