Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula01:10

Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula

The tibia is the main weight-bearing bone of the lower leg. It is larger than the fibula with which it is paired. The tibia is also the second longest bone in the body and is located right below the skin. The proximal end of the tibia forms the medial and the lateral condyle, which articulates with the condyles of the femur to form the knee joint. Between the articulating surfaces is the irregular elevated area known as the intercondylar eminence that serves as the inferior attachment point for...

Corrective midfoot osteotomies can be safely performed in high-risk patients using percutaneous and minimal incision techniques. These methods minimize soft tissue injury and require advanced surgical skill and biomechanical knowledge.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Foot and Ankle Surgery
  • Biomechanics

Background:

  • Corrective midfoot osteotomies are surgical procedures to realign the foot.
  • High-risk patients present unique challenges due to potential soft tissue complications.
  • Minimally invasive techniques are crucial for this patient group.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline preoperative evaluation, surgical techniques, and postoperative management for corrective midfoot osteotomies in high-risk patients.
  • To emphasize the importance of percutaneous and minimum incision approaches.
  • To highlight the necessity of surgical expertise and biomechanical understanding.

Main Methods:

  • Discussion of preoperative clinical and radiographic assessment.
  • Detailed explanation of uni-, bi-, and triplanar realignment techniques.
