case_images: Hospital referred the patient to our facility. His right ankle had a cut on the backside with an exposed transected Achille's tendon and some sloughs (Figure 1(a)). The distance between the medial and lateral medial head of gastrocnemius muscle was palpated to aid in the transfer of these measures to the central axis of the posterior part of the leg (Figures 1(b) and 2(a)). The medial sural nerve and the minor saphenous vein were ligated (Figures 1(b) and 2(a)). The dissection, which went from proximal to distal, encompassed deep fascia, medial sural nerve, and minor saphenous vein (Figures 1(b) and 2(a)).
