Abstract Generally, Asians tend to have obese calves that are shorter and thicker than those of Caucasians. The cause of the enlarged calves is either an excess of subcutaneous fat or calf muscular hypertrophy, but some patients have both conditions. These features are accentuated by the contraction of the calf muscles when patients stand in tiptoe position or wear high heels. In the case of calf muscular hypertrophy without excessive subcutaneous fat, manipulation of the calf muscle is an effective method for reducing calf circumference. From January 2005 to December 2006, the authors performed selective sural neurectomy for 20 patients who complained of obese calves. Using a popliteal incision, the sural nerve branches to the medial and/or lateral gastrocnemius muscles were dissected from the posterior tibial nerve. Using a nerve stimulator, the branches with the most contractile portions were resected in 1 cm lengths at the distal ends. One medial branch was resected in 15 patients, and two branches were resected in 5 patients. In the case of a lateral neurectomy, only one branch was resected. Ultrasound-assisted liposuction was combined for five patients who also showed excessive subcutaneous fat. The patients ranged in age from 19 to 29 years (mean, 23 years). The follow-up period varied from 6 to 18 months. The circumferential change was checked 6 months postoperatively 15 cm below the medial condyle and 15 cm above the medial malleolus. These average circumferences were reduced, respectively, from 36.6 and 32.5 cm to 35.5 and 32.2 cm. In gait analysis performed at 6 months postoperatively, the calf muscle power was slightly reduced to 95% of the preoperative state, but still remained above the normal range. Subjectively, no patient complained of muscle weakness or gait disturbance. One patient showed lower leg edema after mountain climbing that subsided after 1 day of rest. The authors believe a selective neurectomy technique can be an effective method for treating obese calves.
