Figure 1 (A) The semitendinosus was located and cut approximately 3 cm from the border of the tendon muscle for attachment to the tibia. (B) The semitendinosus strand was woven with a 3-0 polyester thread at both ends. (C) The talar terminal was fixed with a 1.5 cm-diameter steel-wire button. (D) One strand of a thread from the calcaneal terminal was passed through the tunnel and fastened with another thread to form a bone-bridge fixation while the graft kept tension.
