title: The use of fasciocutaneous flaps on perforating vessels.
abstract: The distally based fasciocutaneous flaps on perforating vessels are mobile, well shapable and cosmetically satisfactory ones. In soft tissue defects of the lower third of the leg the above flaps should be a method of choice for their simple applicability and shapability of tissues. Pedicular fasciocutaneous flaps enable us to enlarge the possibilities of reconstructive surgery in this field. Microsurgical flaps may then be reserved for more important losses of soft tissues.
