The tendon of extensor hallucis longus should lie lateral to the plane of dissection but may be injured if the incision is placed too dorsally.
The terminal branches of the saphenous nerve cross the operative field from lateral to medial. Damage to these nerves can result in impaired sensation on the dorsal aspect of the hallux, and division of the nerve may be associated with the development of a painful neuroma. The nerve needs to be identified and gently retracted before the dissection proceeds down to the periosteum.
How to Enlarge the Approach
The approach can be extended both proximally and distally to expose all the bones of the first ray from the proximal phalanx of the hallux to the navicular. Create full-thickness flaps to prevent skin necrosis.

How to Enlarge the Approach
Introduction
https://t.me/medicina_free
The dorsal approach to the second to fifth metatarsal bones provides safe access for surgery in a number of conditions. Because the metatarsals lie in an almost subcutaneous position, access is relatively easy; however, care must be taken to respect the neurovascular structures on the dorsum of the foot, especially the cutaneous nerves. Damage to these nerves may produce hyperesthesia or at worst a neuroma. Both these complications produce significant postoperative problems for patients. The uses of the approach include the following:
Plating of the shaft of the metatarsal bones in cases of trauma

Access to the distal part of the bone for wiring in cases of trauma Biopsy or excision of bone tumor Treatment of osteomyelitis of the metatarsal bone Corrective osteotomy in cases of fracture malunion
Position of the Patient
Place the patient supine on the operating table. After exsanguination, use a tourniquet placed on the mid-thigh. Alternatively, use a soft rubber bandage to exsanguinate the foot, then wrap the leg tightly just above the ankle (see
Fig. 1-1).
Landmarks and Incision
Palpate the shafts of the second to fifth metatarsal bones on the dorsal aspect of the foot. In cases of trauma where usually there is considerable swelling, identification of the metatarsal shafts by palpation may be difficult. In such cases, the use of radiologic control via an image intensifier will ensure that the incision is accurately localized over the area of pathology.

Make a longitudinal incision centered over the site of the pathology (Fig.
35-1). The length of the incision will be determined by the procedure. If
surgery is contemplated on two adjacent metatarsal bones, center the incision between the bones to be treated. It is possible to treat two adjacent metatarsal bones through a single incision. Note, however, that this requires more retraction than would be needed for a single metatarsal bone. To reduce the risk of flap necrosis, increase the length of the incision. If all five metatarsal bones are to be treated, make two longitudinal incisions—one over the second to the third interspace and the second over the fourth to fifth interspace.

Internervous Plane
There is no true internervous plane. These bones are almost subcutaneous. The tendons of the extensor digitorum longus and brevis lie in the field of dissection, but these muscles receive their nerve supply proximal to the approach and the muscles themselves cannot be denervated by it.

Superficial Surgical Dissection
Incise the deep fascia in line with the incision. Take care to identify and preserve the cutaneous nerves derived from the saphenous nerve, and the deep and superficial peroneal nerves. Identify the extensor digitorum longus tendon, mobilize it and retract it medially or laterally depending on the siting of the original skin incision (Fig. 35-2).
Deep Surgical Dissection
Deepen the approach in the line of the skin incision. Identify and, if possible, preserve the tendons of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle, which insert onto the lateral side of the second, third, and fourth tendons of the extensor digitorum longus muscle. Appropriate retraction of the tendon will bring you down onto the periosteum covering the respective metatarsal bone (Fig. 35-3).
In cases of trauma, try to preserve as much periosteum as possible. Extensive periosteal stripping will significantly reduce the blood supply to the fracture.
The length and extent of the deep surgical dissection depends on the pathology to be treated and treatment modality selected. For plating of the fractured metatarsals, the length of the incision will depend on the plate selected. Plates should be placed in an epiperiosteal plane. Fractures to be treated with wiring need exposure of the distal end of the affected metatarsal. For wiring, incise the metatarsophalangeal joint of the affected metatarsal bone. Incision of the dorsal capsule will allow the proximal phalanx to be flexed, giving access to the metatarsal head for retrograde insertion of a wire across the fracture site (Fig. 35-4).

Dangers
The tendon of the extensor digitorum longus muscle lies directly in the line of the skin incision. Take care to identify, preserve, and appropriately retract these tendons.
Superficial cutaneous branches of the deep and superficial peroneal nerves run in line with the skin incision. They are easily identified in the subcutaneous dissection and can be and should be preserved. The dorsal metatarsal arteries are frequently damaged by pathology in cases of trauma. Damage to these vessels is usually not significant. The arcuate artery

branch of the dorsalis pedis passes into the plantar aspect of the foot at the proximal end of the first intermetatarsal space. It may be injured in trauma centered on Lisfranc’s joint, but it should lie well proximal to the field of dissection in cases of metatarsal shaft fracture.
How to Enlarge the Approach
This approach is indicated only for local metatarsal pathology and cannot be usefully extended for other surgical procedures.
