Interosseous membrane window size for tibialis posterior tendon transfer—Geometrical and MRI analysis

Publication date: Available online 18 September 2015 Source: Foot and Ankle Surgery Author(s): Pablo Wagner, Cristian Ortiz, Omar Vela, Paul Arias, Diego Zanolli, Emilio Wagner Background Tibialis posterior (TP) tendon transfer through the interosseous membrane is commonly performed in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. In order to avoid entrapment of this tendon, no clear recommendation relative to the interosseous membrane (IOM) incision size has been made. Objective Analyze the TP size at the transfer level and therefore determine the most adequate IOM window size to avoid muscle entrapment
