Abstract
Ankle or subtalar arthroscopy is a commonly performed procedure. It is often desirable to perform a diagnostic or therapeutic ankle arthroscopy followed by an open lateral ankle or hindfoot surgery. Standard positioning for ankle or subtalar arthroscopy is supine with or without the use of noninvasive distractor. In order to save operative time and avoid repositioning and redraping the patient intraoperatively, the authors have developed a positioning technique for performing ankle or subtalar arthroscopy, as well as anterior or medial procedures, followed by sequential procedures of the lateral ankle or hindfoot.
