doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2024.103003

Figure Lengend Snippet: Arthroscopic management of sinus tarsi syndrome in right foot. The patient is in the lateral position. The anterolateral subtalar portal is the viewing portal, and the middle subtalar portal is the working portal. Both the arthroscope and arthroscopic shaver (AS) are advanced posteriorly into the lateral recess of the posterior subtalar joint, and arthroscopic synovectomy is performed. (C, calcaneus; IS, inflamed synovium; T, talus.)

Article Snippet: A 2.7-mm 30° arthroscope (Henke Sass Wolf, Tuttlingen, Germany) is used for this procedure.

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2023.08.023

Figure Lengend Snippet: Right knee, supine position. The arthroscopic sheath is carefully inserted using the obturator to ensure proper coverage of the tip. Subsequently, the encased arthroscopic sheath is introduced into the incision site where the hamstrings were harvested, allowing it to pass through the harvested tract. (AL, anterolateral; AM, anteromedial.)

Figure Lengend Snippet: Right knee, supine position. To administer the local anesthetic cocktail, a syringe prepared with the appropriate mixture is inserted into the inflow valve of the arthroscopic sheath. It is important to ensure that the opposite side of the valve is closed and that the obturator securely locks to the arthroscopic sheath, maintaining the integrity of the procedure.

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2020.04.014

Figure Lengend Snippet: Endoscopically assisted reduction and screw fixation of acute fracture of the posteromedial talar process (Cedell fracture) of right ankle. The patient is in the prone position. The posterolateral portal is the viewing portal and the posteromedial portal is the working portal. (A) A cannulated screw is inserted. To protect the FHL tendon, the tendon is further retracted medially by an arthroscopic probe (ACUFEX; Smith & Nephew, Andover, MA) via the posteromedial portal. (B) Endoscopic view of screw insertion. (CS, cannulated screw; F, fracture line; FHL, flexor hallucis longus; KW, Kirschner wire; P, arthroscopic probe; PLP, posterolateral portal; PMP, posteromedial portal; SD, screwdriver.)
