Modern surgery, general and operative . rst metatarsal; inseparating the fourth metatarsal direct the knife toward the middle of thefirst metatarsal; in separating the third metatarsal carry the knife almost di-rectly across. The separation is faciUtated by bending down the front of thefoot, and at the same time the tendons of the peroneus brevis and tertius aredivided. Open the joint between the first metatarsal and the inner cuneiform Disarticulation at the Tarsometatarsal Articulation 1413 bone, turning the knife toward the middle of the shaft of the fifth metatarsal,and at the same time divide the tibiahs anticus muscle. Treves says that indisarticulation of the second metatarsal the knife is to be held as a trocar, it isto be thrust between the base of the first and second metatarsal bone untilthe pomt strikes bone (Fig. 973), and is then to be raised to a perpendicular andthe cut is to be made toward the external malleolus to sever the ligament ofLisfranc (Fig. 974). Divide any remaining ligaments, and also the tendon.
