Instability of the distal tibia-fibular joint necessitates the implant of a fibular tibial transfixation screw. The screw should be placed 2 cm above the anterior syndesmosis. The angle of insertion is 30 degrees upwards from dorsal in relation to the frontal plane. If tibiofibular stability cannot be maintained following anatomical reconstruction of the fibula the transfixation screw must engage the medial tibial cortex. This is imperative, since the transfixation screw cannot withstand the biomechanical forces during motion and bearing of load if the screw penetrates only three corticals.
