Use of extensor pollicis longus tendon as a distal extension for an opponens transfer.

abstract：:The coverage of defects of the Achilles tendon, malleoli, and heel remains a challenge to reconstructive surgeons. The distally based superficial sural artery island flap is vascularized by the median superficial sural artery, posterolateral septal perforators originating from the peroneal artery, neurovascular arteri...
