Toe arthroscopy has historically had limited applications but is beginning to emerge as a viable treatment option for select toe pathologies, and continues to have expanding indications as technology and techniques improve. Toe arthroscopy has used a multitude of distraction techniques to perform the procedures but all have had limited success. Thus, we propose a simple toe arthroscopy distraction technique that uses an external positioning arm to allow the surgeon to apply manual traction in multiple positions without the use of an assistant, external weights, or any reprocessed sterile equipment.
以往，足趾关节镜的应用有限，但对于某些特定的足趾病变，它正开始成为一种可行的治疗选择，并且随着技术和技巧的改进，其适应证不断扩大。足趾关节镜已采用多种牵引技术来实施手术，但均成效有限。因此，我们提出一种简单的足趾关节镜牵引技术，该技术使用一个外部定位臂，使外科医生无需助手、外部重物或任何再次处理的无菌设备，就能在多个位置施加手动牵引。
