    Author: Bibbo C.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2012; 51(4):504-8. PubMed ID: 22608999.
    Abstract:
    Reconstruction of soft tissue defects in the plantar heel pad presents a surgical challenge that requires replacing the lost tissue with another tissue having similarly unique physical characteristics. This case report describes a reconstruction of the plantar heel pad after wide excision of a heel melanoma, using a sensate plantar medial artery musculocutaneous pedicled island flap.
