Description
Summary:The direct lateral approach to the subtalar joint through the IFT portal provides safe and speedy access to reach the posterior aspect of the subtalar joint and the ankle joint. This viewing portal allows for excellent visualization that extend from the posteromedial corner to the lateral joint space and anterolateral corner of the subtalar joint. Two working portals comprising of the posterolateral and sinus tarsi portals are safely made to enable visualization from the IFT portal. These portals are also useful to observe the CFL and interosseous talocalcaneal ligament. Der direkte laterale Zugang zum Subtalargelenk durch das Infra-Fibular-Tip (IFT) Portal ermöglicht einen sicheren und raschen Zugang zu den posterioren Anteilen des oberen und unteren Sprunggelenks. Dieses Sichtportal erlaubt eine hervorragende Übersicht vom posteromedial bis lateralen Anteilen und anterolateralen Anteilen des unteren Sprunggelenks. Zwei Arbeitsportale, bestehend auf dem posterolateralen und dem sinus tarsi Portal können sicher angelegt werden. Diese Portale sind ebenfalls geeignet, um das Ligamentum Fibulo-calcaneare und das interosseous Ligament zu beurteilen.
