Triceps tendon lengthening

The extension of the triceps triceps tendon is used for the treatment of spastic foot drop. The calf triceps tendon lengthening is used to shorten the triceps triceps and correct the sagging clubfoot. The tendon incision position is different from the Achilles tendon extension of pediatric paralysis. The position is higher. Make an inverted V-shaped incision at the junction of the ankle and the muscles, and cut the triceps tendon Treating diseases: Indication The extension of the triceps triceps tendon is suitable for both the soleus and the gastrocnemius. Contraindications The foot has a deformity of the humerus. Surgical procedure Incision Centering on the middle and lower 1/3 of the posterior side of the calf, a 7 to 9 cm incision was made in the longitudinal direction to cut the skin and subcutaneous tissue. 2. Achilles tendon extension Cut the deep fascia, expose the gastrocnemius tendon and the abdomen and abdomen joints, cut it into a sacral shape, cut the tightly contracted triceps tendon, and cut the back of the foot to 90°-95° by hand. Muscle fibers are not cut. Baker reports on the gastrocnemius tendon and the abdominal abdomen junction The incision is extended and the number of needles is stitched to the sides. Strayer advocates that the gastrocnemius muscle and the soleus muscle are separated by a vascular clamp at the biceps and ankle joints, the gastrocnemius tendon is cut, the foot is stretched, and the cut tendon is naturally retracted. Touch, cut off the remaining tightly contracted tendon fibers, so that the foot can stretch 90°, and the proximal free end of the gastrocnemius muscle is sewn on the deep soleus muscle fiber. The sagittal Z-shaped incision can also be used to extend the triceps tendon. The back of the foot was stretched 90° to suture the tendon and tendon sheath.
