Forbidden positions: 5, 6, 8.

Forbidden positions: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12.

Reference positions: 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 12.

COMMENTS:

Only console transosseous elements can be used in the projection of positions 2, 11 and 12.
The application of positions 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 12 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 adjacent joints.
 

   

 

The transosseous elements recommended for use at the level V of the shin can be designated as: V,1; V,2; V,3; V,4; V,9; V,12; V,3-9; and V,4-10.
