Reverse flow digital artery pedicle flap for closure of diabetic forefoot ulceration
Digital artery pedicle flap is a useful surgical technique for coverage of plantar foot defects. For diabetic forefoot ulcers that are subject to recurrence despite consistent care, this flap can provide long-term durable closure. The authors provide a case report and overview of this innovative reconstructive procedure.
متن کاملReverse Peroneal Artery Flap for Large Heel and Sole Defects: A Reliable Coverage
BACKGROUND Large soft tissue defects of ankle and foot always have been challenging to reconstruct. Reverse sural flaps, free flaps have been used for this problem with variable success. Reverse peroneal artery flap is an option to use with reliability without microvascular repair. Connections of peroneal artery around talus and ankle joint are deep and reliable with anterior tibial and post...
متن کاملMuscle perfusion scan for prediction of anticipated diabetic foot ulceration
Introduction:We evaluated the performance of muscle perfusion scan (MPS) to assess muscle perfusion reserve (MPR) for prediction of incident diabetic foot ulcerations (DFU). Methods: We recruited 41 diabetic patients without any history of DFU. Five mCi 99mTc-MIBI was injected intravenously during repetitive dorsal and plantar right foot flexions. T...
متن کاملThe Internal Pudendal Artery Perforator Thigh Flap: A New Freestyle Pedicle Flap for the Ischial Region
BACKGROUND Recurrence and complication rates of pressure sores are highest in the ischial region, and other donor sites are needed for recurrent pressure sores. The potential of a new freestyle pedicle flap for ischial lesions, an internal pudendal artery perforator (iPap) thigh flap, was examined through anatomical and theoretical analyses and a case series using computed tomography angiograph...
متن کاملSHORT COMMUNICATION Reverse medial plantar artery flap
Coverage of soft tissue defects of the sole has been one of the major challenges of reconstructive surgery. The sole is a specialized structure, with thick skin and septae in the subcutaneous tissues which make it especially resistant to damage from shear forces and high pressures typical of the sole. Replacement by non-sole skin such as by dorsalis pedis, reverse sural and free flaps will be m...
