Abstract
A delay in diagnosis and management of syndesmotic injuries can result in a complex treatment challenge, leading to poorer clinical results and higher rates of unplanned, syndesmotic-related primary operations and reoperations. This article presents a simple and reproducible algorithm with case examples for the management of syndesmotic injuries with delay in diagnosis to help guide surgeons when determining the best treatment strategies for this complex injury.
