A CASE REPORT: RECONSTRUCTION OF THE CALCANEAL REGION DEFECT USING THE MEDIAL PLANTAR FREE FLAP
Main Article Content
Abstract
Soft tissue defects in the calcaneal region represent a reconstructive challenge because of their complexity and the lack of local flaps. We report a clinical case of using the medial plantar free flap to cover of this area. The advantages of the flaps will be discussed.
