Abstract
|
|
|
|
Four patients with soft tissue defects around the ankle joint were covered with peroneal artery perforator-based propeller flaps. Usingcolor Doppler sonography, the flap was designed by considering the location of the perforator and soft tissue defects. The procedure was then performed by rotating the flap by 180o. Additional skin graft was required in a patient due to partial necrosis, and delayed wound repair was performed in another patient with poor blood circulation at the distal part of the flap. The remaining patients did not have any complications and results were considered excellent. Good outcomes were eventually obtained for all patients.
