Zhao G et al. – The authors report an unusual case wherein a fasciocutaneous free flap from an amputated upper limb was used to repair a severe soft tissue injury of the ipsilateral forefoot and ankle. After amputating the nonviable portions of the forefoot, a residual limb flap from the patient's forearm, pedicled with the brachial artery, was used to cover the lower extremity defect. Three years after the injury, the patient was able to maintain balance and ambulate without assistance on the reconstructed lower extremity.
