Distally based sural artery flap without sural nerve.
The distal third of the tibia, ankle and heel area is difficult to reconstruct. For small to medium size defects, local flaps are often an easier alternative than free flap. In lower limb surgery, the sural flap is based on this principle and this flap is becoming increasingly popular. The distally based superficial sural artery flap, first described as a distally based neuro skin flap by masqu...
متن کاملThe distally based lesser saphenous venofasciocutaneous flap for ankle and heel reconstruction.
Finding an appropriate soft-tissue grafting material to close a wound located over the ankle and heel can be a difficult task. The distally based lesser saphenous venofasciocutaneous flap mobilized from the posterior aspect of the upper leg, used as an island pedicle skin flap, can be useful for this purpose. The vascular supply to the flap is derived from the retrograde perfusion of the accomp...
متن کاملDistally Based Sural Artery Adipofascial Flap based on a Single Sural Nerve Branch: Anatomy and Clinical Applications
BACKGROUND The distally based sural artery flap is a reliable, local reconstructive option for small soft tissue defects of the distal third of the leg. The purpose of this study is to describe an adipofascial flap based on a single sural nerve branch without sacrificing the entire sural nerve, thereby preserving sensibility of the lateral foot. METHODS The posterior aspect of the lower limb ...
متن کاملVersatility of the Distally-Based Sural Artery Fasciocutaneous Flap on the Lower Leg and Foot in Patients with Chronic Disease
