Tibial IMN through an infrapatellar approach in the lateral decubitus position may be a valuable alternative as it simplifies the procedure for both surgeons and radiographers. This technique is highly effective for surgical operation and fluoroscopy compared to traditional supine position. This technique also seems to provide satisfactory clinical and radiographic outcomes in our preliminary clinical outcomes.
