RESUMO
For the adequate intraarticular exposure in medial talar dome lesions, medial malleolar osteotomy is necessary in some cases. Many operative techniques including transverse, oblique, inverted V-shape, crescentic and step-cut osteotomies of the medial malleolus have been described previously. But their techniques have several problems such as nonunion, rotation and limited access to lesions. So we introduce the new reverse chevron medial malleolar osteotomy which provides excellent access to lesions, good stability and a broad cancellous surface for rapid healing.
