Knee Disarticulations Versus Transfemoral Amputations: Functional Outcomes.

abstract：:Recent studies on ankle syndesmosis injuries have shown that a significant amount of rotational malediction of the distal fibula are missed and may lead to poor functional outcome. A new set of radiographic criteria were developed to help detect distal fibula internal and external rotation using conventional fluorosco...
