How to Enlarge the Approach
Extensile Measures
To enlarge both approaches proximally, continue the incision along the subcutaneous surface of the tibia. Subperiosteal dissection exposes the subcutaneous and medial surfaces of the tibia along its entire length.
The exposure can be extended distally to expose the deltoid ligaments and the talocalcaneonavicular joint.

How to Enlarge the Approach
Introduction
https://t.me/medicina_free
The medial approach exposes the medial side of the ankle joint.1 Its uses include the following:
Arthrodesis of the ankle Excision or fixation of osteochondral fragments from the medial side
of the talus Reduction and fixation of fracture dislocations of the talus Removal of loose bodies from the ankle joint
Position of the Patient
Place the patient supine on the operating table. Exsanguinate the limb either by elevating it for 5 minutes or by applying a soft rubber bandage firmly; then inflate a tourniquet. The natural external rotation of the leg exposes the medial malleolus. The pelvis ordinarily does not have to be tilted to improve the exposure (see Fig. 3-1).
Landmark and Incision
Landmark
The medial malleolus is the palpable distal end of the tibia.
Incision
Make a 10-cm longitudinal incision on the medial aspect of the ankle joint, centering it on the tip of the medial malleolus. Begin the incision over the medial surface of the tibia. Below the malleolus, curve it forward onto the medial side of the middle part of the foot (Fig. 4-1).

ankle joint, with its center over the tip of the medial malleolus. Distally, curve the
incision forward onto the medial side of the middle part of the foot.
Internervous Plane
The approach uses no internervous plane. Nevertheless, the surgery is safe because the tibia is subcutaneous and all dissection stays on bone.
Superficial Surgical Dissection
https://t.me/medicina_free
Mobilize the skin flaps. Identify the long saphenous vein and the saphenous nerve, which run together along the anterior border of the medial malleolus and pass a sling around these structures, retracting them anteriorly (Fig. 4-
2).
Deep Surgical Dissection
To uncover the point at which the medial malleolus joins the shaft of the tibia, make a small longitudinal incision in the anterior part of the joint capsule.
Divide the flexor retinaculum just posterior to the medial malleolus and identify the tendon of the tibialis posterior muscle, which runs immediately behind the medial malleolus, grooving the bone (see Fig. 4-2). Retract the tendon posteriorly to expose the posterior surface of the malleolus (Fig. 4-
3A).
Score the bone longitudinally to ensure correct alignment of the malleolus during closure. Then, drill and tap the medial malleolus so that it can be reattached (see Fig. 4-3B).
Using an osteotome or oscillating saw, cut through the medial malleolus obliquely from top to bottom. Do not complete the osteotomy with a saw; instead, finish by cracking the osteotomy with an osteotome so as not to damage the articular cartilage. The osteotomy goes laterally and distally from the junction of the medial malleolus with the shaft of the tibia to enter the joint at the angle of the joint.2 Check the position of the cut through the incision in the anterior joint capsule often to be sure it is accurate (see Fig.
4-3).
Retract the medial malleolus (with its attached deltoid ligaments) downward and forcibly evert the foot, bringing the dome of the talus and the articulating surface of the tibia into view (Figs. 4-4 and 4-5). Eversion is limited because of the intact fibula.

Dangers
The saphenous nerve and the long saphenous vein should be preserved as a unit, largely to prevent damage to the saphenous nerve leading to neuroma formation.
The tendon of the tibialis posterior muscle is in particular danger during this approach, because it lies immediately posterior to the medial malleolus. Preserve the tendon by releasing the flexor retinaculum and retracting the tendon posteriorly while performing the osteotomy of the malleolus (see
Figs. 4-2 and 4-3A). The tendons of the flexor hallucis longus and flexor
digitorum longus muscle, together with the posterior neurovascular bundle, lie more posteriorly and laterally. They are in no danger as long as the osteotomy is performed carefully (see Figs. 10-2 and 10-4).

Special Surgical Points
In cases of fracture, the interdigitation of the broken ends of bone prevents rotation between the two fragments when a screw is inserted and tightened. No such interdigitation exists in an osteotomy. Therefore, two Kirschner wires should be inserted prior to insertion of the screw to prevent rotation when the screw is tightened. After the osteotomy has been stabilized with the screw, the two Kirschner wires can be removed. Tension band fixation also may be used. Make sure to align the bones correctly by aligning the score marks made on the bone before the osteotomy was performed.
How to Enlarge the Approach
The approach usually is not enlarged either distally or proximally.
