TENDOCUTANEOUS FLAP OF THE CRUS FOR PLASTY OF INFECTED COMBINED ACHILLES AREA DEFECTS
The surgical one-stage treatment technique of infected tendocutaneous Achilles area defects is presented in this study. The authors transplanted a sural comple . tendocutaneous flap on peroneal perforator vessels using “propeller » technique in 11 patients. The surgery was performed in the setting of infection and function disorder in all patients. Complete recovery of wounds was obtained. By the 30th day after surgery, ultrasonography revealed good blood circulation in the flap and in tendinous transplant with complete fusion signs. By the 3rd month, patients were walking without limping and the aesthetic result was assessed having 20-28 points based upon the POSAS scale.
