The role of microsurgical free flaps in foot and ankle surgery.

Clinics in podiatric medicine and surgery·2000

Microsurgical free-tissue transfer offers successful reconstruction for complex hindfoot wounds involving multiple tissue types. This technique leads to excellent patient satisfaction and durable wound healing.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Microsurgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Complex hindfoot wounds present significant reconstructive challenges.
  • Previous methods may have limitations in addressing multi-tissue defects.

Observation:

  • A review of 25 patients undergoing microsurgical free-tissue reconstruction for posterior hindfoot defects.
  • A 60% response rate to a patient questionnaire with a mean follow-up of 2.1 years.

Findings:

  • Microsurgical free-tissue transfer, combined with standard techniques, enables successful reconstruction of complex hindfoot wounds.
  • Careful flap selection allows for one-stage reconstruction, often eliminating the need for secondary contour revision.

Implications:
