Will someone please tell me why this procedure (Ertl technique for
transtibials) has not been published in a respectable MD publication. If it
has, please excuse me for not knowing and send me the article.

Ten to fifteen years ago, a lecture was given at a MidWest chapter meeting. I
then tried to encourage local Surgeons to practice this procedure. The
problem, there wasn't any credible publication to support this procedure.
