Abstract

Sural flap application in three cases with foot and tarsal soft tissue defect and review of literatureTendons and bones often remain uncovered due to thin subcutaneous tissues in foot and tarsal injuries. Several methods have been described to close these defects. In this study, we assessed the treatment results of the four extremities of the three patients to which we applied reverse-flow neurocutaneous sural flap in covering the vital tissues which remain uncovered based on post traumatic foot and tarsal cutaneous and subcutaneous soft tissue losses with literature. Reverse-flow neurocutaneous sural flap is a preferred method in covering vital tissues particularly in tarsal and heel areas because it is easy, highly effective with low donor site morbidity and complication rates.

Özet

Ayak ve ayak bileği yumuşak doku defektli üç olguda sural flep uygulaması ve literatürün gözden geçirilmesiAyak ve ayak bileği yaralanmalarında subkutan dokunun ince olmasından dolayı tendon ve kemikler sıklıkla açıkta kalmaktadır. Bu defektlerin kapatılması için çeşitli metotlar tarif edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada travma sonrası ayak ve ayak bileğinde gelişen cilt ve cilt altı yumuşak doku kayıplarına bağlı açıkta kalan vital dokuların örtümünde ters akımlı nörokutan sural flep uyguladığımız üç hastanın dört ekstremitesinin tedavi sonuçlarını literatür eşliğinde değerlendirdik. Ters akımlı nörokutan sural flep kolay, etkinliği yüksek, donör saha morbiditesi ve komplikasyon oranları düşük olduğu için özellikle ayak bileği ve topuk bölgelerinde vital dokuların örtümünde tercih edilebilecek bir yöntemdir.
