Abstract:
Objective According to the characteristics of skin defects in ankle and foot select the posterior lateral leg pedide skin flaps supplyed by different blood to repair,providing advice and reference.Methods Between January,2001 and December,2015,163 cases of soft tissue defects at the foot and ankle were treated in our department.①The sural neurovascular flap was used in 93 cases in ankle and foot defect.②The sural nerve nutritional vessel flap pediele with the perforating branch of the peroneal artery in 36 cases in ankle and foot defect.③The sural nerve nutritional vessel flap pediele with the perforating branch of the peroneal artery including sensory reconstruction in 16 cases in heel rejion defect.④Peroneal artery perforator flap in 10 cases in anterior ankle,lateral malleolus and posterior malleolus defect.⑤The use of the sural fasciocutaneous flap alonged with peroneal artery and perforators in 8 cases in dorsal foot defect.The donor site with skin graft.Results Of the 93 sural neurovascular flaps,8 had partial loss,which were cured after dressing.All the sural nerve nutritional vessel flaps pediele with the perforating branch of the peroneal artery survived.Sensory grading standard by UK Medical Research Council was used to evaluate the recovery of sensory function on the last follow-up.The sensory function recovery of heel region flaps with reconstruction of the sensory was between S0 and S1.All peroneal artery perforator flaps survived.One of the sural fasciocutaneous flap alonged with peroneal artery and perforators occurred distal epidermis,which were cured after dressing.All patients were followed up 6-50 months (mean 20 months).All patients had recoveryed walking function,and infection wound had no recurrence after surgery.Conclusion According to the location,size,severity and the injury of peripheral vascular,select the most simple,safe,minimal damage flap for the soft tissue defects at the foot and ankle.The right choice and the exact design can improve flap survival rate,and recieve good clinical results.
