The Role of Duplex Ultrasound in Microsurgical Reconstruction: Review and Technical Considerations.

abstract：:Achilles-tendon repair wounds are prone to breakdowns and secondary infections, compromising the integrity of the repair and the ultimate function of the repaired tendon. Unlike defects resulting from tumor excision, burns, or trauma, Achilles-tendon repair wounds have their own special considerations. The dissection ...
