    Author: Hess P, Reinders J.
    Journal: J Trauma; 1986 Jan; 26(1):90-2. PubMed ID: 3510310.
    Abstract:
    A case of transposition of the sartorius muscle is presented. This method was successfully used for treatment of an exposed knee joint with subtotal loss of the extensor apparatus of the knee. A proximally based muscle flap proved very efficient for coverage of the knee joint and restoration of function.
