Abstract:
The fasciocutaneous flap, when correctly chosen, can supply an expedient solution for some of the challenging soft-tissue problems in the leg. The fasciocutaneous flap should be included in the list of reconstructive options for the lower extremity, particularly in the distal tibia. The improved knowledge of blood supply to the fasciocutaneous flaps allows the design of a safer, longer, more useful flap.
