Map of perforators of the posterior tibial artery and peroneal artery using handheld doppler ultrasound evaluating clinical outcome of perforator flaps which cover soft tissue defects of the lower leg and foot
Soft tissue defects of the lower leg and foot are complicated injuries with numerous causes including trauma, ulcers, and Gout. Objectives: 1. To construct a map of the perforators of the peroneal artery and posterior tibial artery using a handheld Doppler ultrasound. 2. To evaluate the clinical outcome of perforator flaps to cover soft tissue defects in the lower leg and foot.
