Master the treatment of complex ankle injuries. This training offers a technical immersion in the "360-degree reconstruction" approach for Achilles tendon ruptures, posterior tibial tendon dislocation, and multiple ligamentous injuries, presented from a surgical perspective.

Training Focus:

• Reconstruction of complex ankle injuries.
• Achilles tendon repair.
• Management of posterior tibial tendon dislocation.
• Reconstruction of ankle ligamentous injuries (deltoid and syndesmosis).
• Incision techniques to prevent skin necrosis and allow functional restoration.

Detailed Content:

• Strategic Incision Planning: Methodology for demarcating incisions that allow access to multiple injuries, minimizing risks of skin necrosis.
• Anatomic Achilles Tendon Repair: Technique for Achilles tendon osteosynthesis using FiberTape and high-strength sutures (Krackow stitch) for primary stability.
• Posterior Tibial Tendon Reestablishment: Approach for reinserting the dislocated posterior tibial tendon into its original groove, including repair of the ruptured retinaculum for restoration of functional biomechanics.
• Detailed Ligamentous Reconstruction (Deltoid and Syndesmosis): Techniques for reinserting anterior and posterior portions of the deltoid ligament with anchors, and stabilization of the syndesmosis with a fixation device.
• Neurovascular Protection: Strategies for identification and protection of adjacent neurovascular structures during surgical approaches.
• Layered Closure: Systematic approach for closing multiple incisions, ensuring the integrity of osteofibrous tunnels.
• Detailed Visualization (Surgical Perspective): Analysis of the procedure with a focus on surgical steps and intraoperative decisions.

Included Material:

• Detailed PDF: Practical summary of the procedure, covering preoperative planning, repair techniques for the Achilles tendon, approach to medial structures (posterior tibial and deltoid), syndesmosis reconstruction, and layered closure.
