Unilobed and bilobed skin flaps. Detailed surgical technique for plantar lesions.
The authors provide a detailed description of effective surgical techniques for painful plantar skin lesions of the foot that are not amenable to simple excisional procedures. Modified unilobed and bilobed skin flaps are described, emphasizing step-by-step design and procedure performance. These advanced techniques offer numerous advantages over other excisional and flap methods, such as being reproducible and yielding predictable results.
