The primary objective of this tip is to assist foot and ankle surgeons in performing a precise 60 degrees lengthening Z-plasty in the operating room without the use of a template or protractor. A ruler and basic trigonometric principles are applied to the line of contracture to obtain consistent and reliable results.

Background: Intraoperative imaging is critical for achieving precise cancer resection. Among available techniques, Raman spectral imaging emerges as a promising modality due to its high spatial resolution and signal stability. However, its clinical application for in vivo imaging is limited by the inherently weak Raman scattering signal.
