The reconstruction of foot remains difficult problem with many surgical modalities because foot has unique structure, insufficient local soft tissue and poor vascularity. The medial plantar island flap is capable of providing sensate and structurally similar tissue with single operative procedure. We reconstructed 5 cases of soft tissue defects on the foot by using medial plantar island flap(3 cases proximally- based, 2 cases distally-based) in diabetics. Successful soft tissue coverage was achieved on medial malleolus, dorsal midfoot, tendo calcaneus, and forefoot. The size of flap ranged from 3.5 x 3.0 cm to 6.0 x 4.0 cm. Follow-up ranged from 8 months to 26 months. All flaps survived without serious complication. All patients had protective sensation in daily activities and were able to ambulate in normal footwear. This paper demonstrates that medial plantar island flap with proximally and distally-based pedicle should be considered as a useful technique for reconstruction of soft tissue defect from ankle to forefoot.

Addisons disease is relatively rare than secondary adrenal insufficiency and result from progressive adrenocortical destruction. The common causes are idiopathic autoimmune atrophy and tuberculosis of adrenal glands. It is generally regarded as incurable in the sense that substitution therapy is required for the rest of the patients life. We report a case of tuberculous primary adrenal insufficiency which was confirmed by biopsy. This case was treated with antituberculous medication and showen to have improved adrenocortical function after six months.

Chylous leakage is an extremely rare complication of surgery for breast cancer. We experienced a case of chylous leakage after axillary lymph node dissection. A 38-year-old woman with invasive ductal carcinoma in the left breast underwent a modified radical mastectomy after four cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The postoperative serosanguinous drainage fluid became "milky" on the fourth postoperative day. After trying conservative management, we re-explored the axilla and ligated the lymphatic trunk. Although the success of many cases supports conservative management, timely surgical intervention represents an alternative in cases where leakage persists or where the output is high.
