WatchME Instructional Video: Ultrasound-Guided Botulinum Toxin Injections with Needle In-Plane: Lower Limb Targets-Lower Limb Section 7 Soleus Injection.mp4

Lower Limb Section 7 Soleus Injection.mp4

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video explains the anatomy and injection technique for the soleus muscle. The soleus muscle is highlighted and its origin, insertion, and innervation are discussed. The cross-sectional anatomy of the leg is shown, with the soleus muscle located deep to the gastrocnemius muscle and posterior to the fibular and posterior tibial neurovascular bundles. Ultrasound is used to guide the injection, with the needle inserted from medial to lateral through the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle. Electrical stimulation is used to confirm needle tip positioning, and botulinum toxin is injected into the soleus muscle.
