The implantation of the Kalix® requires
a minimal incision just anterior (+/- 1.5 cm)
and plantar to the external malleolus
An "S" shape incision allows an excellent
access to the Sinus Tarsi
Care is taken in order to safeguard the personal
tendon as well as the Nervus Safena and its ramification
which is located close to the malleolus
Access to the Sinus Tarsi
A direct access to the Sinus Tarsi is obtained,
followed by a surgical debridement and cleaning
in order to be able to introduce the trial endorthesis
as well as the final endorthesis
There should be no destruction of the cervical
and interosseous ligaments
