Versatility of Delayed Reverse Sural Flap for Reconstruction of the Distal Lower Extremity in High-Risk Patients

Soft tissue defects in the distal lower extremity represent a special challenge in deciding the operative method owing to the poor vascularity of the lower leg and the limited adjacent soft tissue. During the last few decades, various methods of lower-limb wound coverage have been described, such as local flaps, distant flaps, and free flaps. Among the various methods, the distally based fas
