  • Title: Instep island flaps.
    Author: Reading G.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1984 Dec; 13(6):488-94. PubMed ID: 6395781.
    Abstract:
    The instep island flap is safe and useful. It is based on branches of the posterior tibial artery and can be a musculocutaneous or a direct fasciocutaneous island flap. Sensory branches of the digital nerves may be transposed with the flap. There is a wide arc of transposition and the flap has survived even in very difficult circumstances.
