OJEDA-FIORE, Hugo Antero et al. Exeresis surgery on the external region of the leg - anatomical repairs. Cir. parag. [online]. 2023, vol.47, n.2, pp.37-38. ISSN 2307-0420.  https://doi.org/10.18004/sopaci.2023.agosto.37.

The presented case corresponds to a patient with a low-grade soft tissue tumor measuring 5 cm in the upper third of the right leg, on the lateral side. The surgical approach involved an appropriate wide resection. In relation to the study's objective of correlating the surgical approach for resecting a soft tissue tumor located on the outer side of the upper third of the leg with the anatomical compartmental and extracompartmental elements of the leg, an anatomical dissection was performed in the Descriptive Anatomy Department, focusing on the elements of the lateral compartment of the leg. During this dissection, the following structures were identified: the peroneal muscles, the lateral branch of the common peroneal nerve or external sciatic nerve, their relationships with the head of the right fibula, and their branches - the superficial and deep peroneal nerves.

Palabras clave : Disección anatómica; elementos compartimentales; Anatomical dissection; compartmental elements.
