Introduction}]{I. Introduction}\par alcaneal osteotomy is a well-established surgery for flexible flat foot \hyperref[b0]{(1,} {\ref 2)}. Many methods are possible and one of the most used is the calcaneal medial translation popularized by Kouktsogiannis \hyperref[b0]{(1)}, commonly associated with tendon transfer and spring ligament reconstruction. \hyperref[b0]{(1,}\hyperref[b1]{3,}\hyperref[b2]{4,}\hyperref[b3]{5)}.\par Calcaneal medialization was usually made to favor the tendon transferred once the initial understanding was that the progressive flat foot in adults was secondarily to a tibialis posterior insufficiency. As tibialis posterior was the initial cause of the disease, it's substitution by a healthy despite weaker tendon was necessary. \hyperref[b0]{(1,}\hyperref[b2]{4,}\hyperref[b3]{5,}\hyperref[b4]{6,}\hyperref[b5]{7,}\hyperref[b6]{8,}\hyperref[b7]{9)}. Some recent evidence has shown that in many cases, the disease starts as a ligamental insufficiency and the healthy tibialis posterior reacts trying to compensate and in a later pathology moment degenerate. \hyperref[b0]{(1,}\hyperref[b3]{5,}\hyperref[b6]{8,}\hyperref[b9]{10)} This new understanding led to surgeries to address ligament reconstruction preserving tibialis posterior \hyperref[b0]{(1,}\hyperref[b1]{3,}\hyperref[b3]{5,}\hyperref[b4]{6,}\hyperref[b6]{8)} or isolated calcaneal osteotomies to give a better leaver arm for the tendon function \hyperref[b10]{(11,}\hyperref[b11]{12,}\hyperref[b12]{13)}. Minimally invasive calcaneal osteotomy is one possible technique for flat foot correction with many possible advantages are earlier weight bearing and earlier consolidation. \hyperref[b10]{(11,}\hyperref[b11]{12,}\hyperref[b12]{13)} Most descriptions about this technique are made with the patient in lateral position with a lateral approach in a similar fashion as open techniques. \hyperref[b10]{(11,}\hyperref[b11]{12,}\hyperref[b12]{13)}. This paper describes the minimally invasive technique made by one lateral or medial approach in a ventral position and our initial results. \section[{II. Methods}]{II. Methods}\par Between April 2019 and September 2019, 10 patients were operated using this technique. Surgery is performed in ventral position under a sciatic nerve block. Consent was obtained and protocol was approved by local and national ethical committees. All patients have a percutaneous Achilles stretching. One kwire is inserted transcutaneously at the desired site for the osteotomy (figure \hyperref[fig_2]{1}). Lateral incision of about 5 mm large is made at the center of calcaneus.\par A percutaneous periosteal elevator is inserted and only the line for the burr passage is dissected to allow minimal soft tissue disruption. The 2,5/20 mm Shannon burr is used. One dorsal to plantar direct and straight cut is made with the fluoroscopic visualization and the use of the k-wire as a guide for the cut. At this point an instrument can be inserted at the portal to leverage the fragment to in a plantar and medial direction or a Steinman 3.0 wire is passed near the Achilles insertion were a stronger bone is expected.\par Lateral and axial views are easily performed in this position to check the ideal position for calcaneus and screws (figure \hyperref[fig_3]{2}).\par Full weight bearing is permitted immediately. In 6 weeks strengthening exercises are initiated.\par 15 patients were operated using this technique. 67\% were woman. Median age were 38.9 years and median BMI was 23.5. \section[{III. Results}]{III. Results}\par All patients were able to bear full weight immediately. More swelling and pain was seen in the younger patients.\par No cases of non-consolidation were observed, and consolidation occurred in all patients by 6 weeks as pain reduced, and initial signs of calcification could be detected in x-ray.\par No cases of infection, skin problems, nerve or vascular damage were detected, but two cases of proximal migration of distal fragment occurred before we adopted the Achilles lengthening in all patients. \section[{IV. Discussion}]{IV. Discussion}\par Painful flat foot is one of the most common orthopedics lesions in the elderly population, possibly because of progressive ligament insufficiency \hyperref[b6]{(8,}\hyperref[b13]{14)}. Once a valgus deformity is formed, non-conservative treatment has proved to correct definitively \hyperref[b6]{(8,}\hyperref[b13]{14)}. Bilateral flat foot has been associated with anterior knee pain, lumbar spine pain, besides hindfoot and ankle arthritis \hyperref[b14]{(15,}\hyperref[b15]{16)}.\par Once the valgus alignment is present the deformity tends to evolve \hyperref[b4]{(6,}\hyperref[b13]{14,}\hyperref[b15]{16,}\hyperref[b18]{17,}\hyperref[b19]{18)}. As population goes older because of the longer life expectation, severe cases of flat foot alignment tend to grow. Hindfoot arthritis are the next stage for these patients. Performing the calcaneal medializing correction can avoid this evolution \hyperref[b12]{(13,}\hyperref[b15]{16,}\hyperref[b20]{19)}. So, the best time to perform the procedure is after deformity but before arthritis, which means that the patient should be addressed in a lifetime when short recovery procedures are fundamental for early return to work, your understanding is that minimally invasive corrections will play a fundamental role in this new reality.\par In the older population, longer or more aggressive surgeries with longer rehabilitation protocols make many patients ineligibles. Minimally invasive surgery with only two punctual incisions, regional block and the possibility of immediate weight bearing may be the best solution for these patients as well.\par When doing the traditional technique for flat foot correction (Jonhson's type 2), after the Kouktsogiannis osteotomy and flexor digitalis longus to navicular or tibialis posterior, our group felt that in most cases a health tibialis posterior was found only with some degree of fat degeneration and synovitis \hyperref[b4]{(6,}\hyperref[b6]{8)}. That impression went in the same direction of the recent literature, were the tibialis posterior insufficiency comes later after longer time of hindfoot progressive valgus alignment \hyperref[b13]{(14,}\hyperref[b21]{20)}. Thus, bone correction when a not completely degenerated tibialis posterior is seen in MRI is a possible and less aggressive choice in elderly population. \hyperref[b13]{(14)} This paper is addressed to show the ventral position used at these cases, which in our opinion makes the procedure easier. The nerve block is made already in the ventral position not needing to change patient position. Lateral and axial view of the calcaneus are made by only rotating the C-arm.\par Another differential of this position is that the medial approach can be made. In this surgery the greater risk is to injure the calcaneus branch of the tibial nerve, once it's the most posterior structure at medial side and is important for plantar sensibility. Laterally, several branches of the sural nerve are posterior, but they are responsible for a small not weight bearing area \hyperref[b22]{(21)}. This way, a medial approach gives a better control and protection of medial structures, and in lateral approach the incision is made in the traction side of the calcaneus, making it more difficult to heal. But we still need cadaveric studies to determine the safety.\par We consider important the Achilles tendon stretching before the osteotomy. It makes the reduction easier; some similar articles show cases were the fragment makes a proximal migration \hyperref[b10]{(11)}. We consider the plantar positioning of the fragment to be essential for good correction. Thus, we observed less pain in patients submitted to the lengthening.\par We had a clear impression that older patients are easier to operate, as the bone cut is softer, and they reported less pain in post operatory rehabilitation. So, this technique became our choice for patients over 50 years old. \section[{V. Conclusion}]{V. Conclusion}\par We described a new technique approach for minimally invasive flat foot correction that seems easier, faster and more reliable for fluoroscopic control. Further comparative studies are necessary to see evolution of these patients. The surgeon is able to feel it so a straight line is easier to do with the Shannon burr. K-wire is positioned in the limit of the "safe zone" which is half way between calcaneal spur and fibula. \begin{quote} Figure Legends\end{quote} \begin{figure}[htbp] \noindent\textbf{}\includegraphics[]{image-2.png} \caption{\label{fig_0}}\end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \noindent\textbf{}\includegraphics[]{image-3.png} \caption{\label{fig_1}}\end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \noindent\textbf{1}\includegraphics[]{image-4.png} \caption{\label{fig_2}Figure 1 :}\end{figure} \begin{figure}[htbp] \noindent\textbf{2}\includegraphics[]{image-5.png} \caption{\label{fig_3}Figure 2 :}\end{figure} \backmatter \begin{bibitemlist}{1} \bibitem[Roberts et al.]{b7}\label{b7} \textit{}, Lauren E Roberts , Md , Msc . \bibitem[Cody and Md*]{b15}\label{b15} \textit{}, Elizabeth A Cody , Md* . \bibitem[Younger et al.]{b16}\label{b16} \textit{}, Alastair Mb Younger , Chb , Msc , Chm , Rebecca A Frcsc ?; Cerrato , Md ? . \bibitem[Arangio and Salathe ()]{b21}\label{b21} ‘A biomechanical analysis of posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, medial displacement calcaneal osteotomy and flexor digitorum longus transfer in adult acquired flat foot’.
