Non-notable per WP:GNG, evident WP:Conflict of interest by creator (see comment here), only reference in medical journal is written by owner of clinic where procedure is performed. Even with link to clinic's sales site removed article is still borderline WP:SPAM. Prod contested by creator. Top Jim (talk) 10:26, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete Seems to be a neologism used only by this one doctor for removing bunions. Sources are self-referential, and there is no evidence that this "procedure" has passed into the medical mainstream. The word Syndesmosis relates to a way that bones are connected. At Google it is mainly used in reference to ankles and ankle injuries, not bunions. --MelanieN (talk) 15:41, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
