目的 评价不同皮瓣、肌皮瓣修复小腿及足踝部皮肤软组织缺损的效果,探讨小腿及足踝部皮肤软组织缺损的理想修复方法。 方法 2002年6月-2010年1月,应用15种皮瓣、肌皮瓣修复128例(138处)小腿及足踝部皮肤软组织缺损。其中小腿中上段21处,小腿中下段45处,内外踝及足跟部43处,足背及前足29处。主要应用最多的皮瓣有腓肠神经营养血管皮瓣、腓肠肌内外侧头肌皮瓣、腓浅神经营养血管皮瓣和足底内侧皮瓣。修复软组织缺损范围5 cm×4 cm~23 cm×14 cm。 结果 术后135处创面Ⅰ期愈合,皮瓣完全成活;2处皮瓣部分坏死,经二次手术植皮修复;1例游离股前外侧皮瓣修复小腿中下段软组织缺损,皮瓣完全坏死,后改取对侧腓肠神经营养血管交腿皮瓣修复成活。腓肠神经营养血管皮瓣应用例数最多,成活率高,吻合血管的游离皮瓣坏死率较高。术后患者均获随访1~10年,平均23个月,皮瓣均成活良好, 无溃疡、渗液等。 结论 正确认识并选择皮瓣、肌皮瓣修复小腿及足踝部皮肤软组织缺损可提高皮瓣成活率,恢复肢体良好功能,腓肠神经营养血管皮瓣是一种修复小腿及足踝部软组织缺损的理想皮瓣。
Objective To report the methods and clinical effect of the lateral crural flaps in repairing anterior tibal, dorsal and calcaneal softtissue defects. Methods From August 1999 to December 2004, 18cases of defects were repaired with lateral crural flap, including 15 cases of anterior tibal, dorsal and calcaneal softtissue defects with vascular pedicled island lateral crural flaps and 3 cases of dorsal pedal soft-tissue defects with free vascular lateral crural flaps.〖WTHZ〗Results All flaps survived after operation.Insufficient arterial supply of the flap occurred in 2 cases after operation, the pedicled incision sewing thread was removed and lidocain was injected around vascular pedicle, then the flap ischemia was released. Inadequate venous return and venous hyperemia occurred in 1 case because peroneal vein was injured duringoperation.The flap edge skin was cut and heparin was locally dripped for one week, the flap vascular cycle was resumed. All patients were followed up two months to one year, the flaps were not fat, and the elasticity was good. Conclusion It is safe and reliable to use lateral crural flap to repair anterior tibial, dorsal pedal and calcaneal soft-tissue defects.
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of perforator propeller flap of lower limb in the treatment of foot and ankle defect in children. Methods The clinical data of 28 children with foot and ankle defect treated with perforator propeller flap of lower limb between January 2018 and January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 18 boys and 10 girls with an average age of 7.3 years (range, 6-14 years). There were 8 cases of traffic accident injury and 20 cases of chronic infection wound. The disease duration was 2-4 months, with an average of 2.8 months. After thorough debridement, the residual wound size ranged from 5 cm×4 cm to 9 cm×5 cm. Repairing was performed after 7-28 days of the infection in control. According to the location, size, and shape of the wound, the perforating vessels were located by ultrasonic Doppler, and the perforator propeller flap (area ranged from 6 cm×5 cm to 11 cm×6 cm) was designed and harvested to repair the wound. Flap transfer combined with free split-thickness skin graft covered the wound in 2 cases. The donor site was sutured directly (22 cases) or repaired with skin graft (6 cases). Results Twenty-six flaps survived, of which 20 cases were in primary healing, and 6 cases had epidermal necrosis at the end of small paddle, which healed after dressing change. Necrosis occurred in 2 cases due to venous crisis which healed after anterolateral femoral flap free transplantation. Primary wound healing was achieved in donor site. All 28 children were followed up 6-24 months (mean, 10.5 months). The texture, shape, and motor function of the lower limb was satisfactory. At last follow-up, the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Association (AOFAS) score was 89.8±8.0, which was significantly different from the preoperative score (79.6±10.4) (t=−11.205, P<0.001); 20 cases were excellent, 6 cases were good, and 2 cases were poor, and the excellent and good rate was 92.8%. ConclusionThe perforator propeller flap of lower limb in children has its own characteristics. It is a reliable method to repair the foot and ankle defect in children.
