Safe positions: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12.

Reference positions: 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 9.

COMMENTS:

Only console transosseous elements can be used in the projection of position 12. The application of positions 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 and 9 is optimal at this level, because in this case the transosseous elements will minimally stand in the way of soft tissue displacement relative to the tibia while motions in the ankle joint.
