[Heel reconstruction by the composite island flap of the lower leg]
Abstract:
From 1987, 6 to 1992, 6 cases of heel defect were repaired successfully by reverse transfer of the composite island flap from the lateral lower leg. The flap, pedicled with peroneal vessels, consisted of skin, subcutaneous tissue, fibula and adjacent muscles. The contour and function were satisfactory.
