Abstract

Objective To evaluate the results of VSD combining with reversed leg neurovascular flap on the leg wounds repair.Methods From March 2008 to September 2009,9 Patients underwent a common therapy of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) combining with reversed neurovascular flap in the treatment of leg wounds.Results All flaps obtained healing by first intention.The average postopretive hospitalization days were 23.4 days(22-30 days).Conclusion Combining VSD with reversed neurovascular flap was a recommendable procedure for repair of soft tissue defect in peri -ankle area.It can stimulate the growth of granulation tissue and reduce the hospitalization time.It is a simple,safe and effective method on the leg wounds repair.

Key words： Soft tissue defect; Sural nerve; Saphenous nerve; Surgical flap; Vacuum sealing drainage
