title: Management of heel ulcers in insensate foot by using free prefabricated radial fascial flap - a new flap.
abstract: Heel ulcers are common in insensate foot. The management of such ulcers require tissue not only to resurface the skin defect, which is small in most of the cases; but also well vascularised tissue to fill the cavity which results after excision of the ulcer. We have described a new flap prefabricated radial fascial flap, by which both aims are achieved easily.
