Abstract |
Residual pain after ankle replacement may implicate lesions in posteromedial structures, including the posterior tibial pedicle and tendon. The technique described here protects these structures, by positioning a malleable plate via a medial retromalleolar counter-approach. The technique seems not to cause any specific iatrogenicity. We advocate systematic implementation of this kind of protection in ankle replacement surgery.
Level of evidence |
IV, retrospective study.
