Additional file 1 of Minimally invasive dual incision with mini plate internal fixation improves outcomes over 30 months in 20 patients with Sanders type III calcaneal fractures

Additional file 1: Figure S1. Minimal dual-incision and mini plate internal fixation. (A, B) Incision locations are marked before surgery. (C, D) A medial small incision revealed a comminuted calcaneus inner wall, and the neurovascular tendon in the front of the incision. Both require careful protection. (E) Small lateral incision revealed a collapsed articular surface. The tendon sheath and nerves of the fibula must be protected. (F, G) General appearance of the incisions after fixation. (H, I) Intraoperative fluoroscopic images.
