| Résumé : |
• The weight-bearing surface of the foot has a unique anatomy with highly specialized functional units capable of withstanding elevated pressures and unique forces.
• Loss of the specialized anatomy owing to ulceration leads to an increased likelihood of further ulceration and complications. • Replacing like tissue with like tissue produces a desirable outcome of a stable soft tissue envelope that is more able to withstand pressure and shear forces. • Tissue from the non–weight-bearing portion of the medial plantar longitudinal arch provides the same specialized anatomy as the heel fat pad. • The medial plantar artery flap may be designed to provide protective sensation to the weight-bearing portion of the heel. |
