What is Modified Gastrocnemius Flap for Knee Defects about?
The document discusses a modified technique for using the medial gastrocnemius myocutaneous flap to cover soft tissue defects around the knee after total knee arthroplasty. This approach combines the medial gastrocnemius flap with a medial sural artery perforator flap, successfully applied in four patients with deep infections and resulting defects. The modified technique improves coverage and healing outcomes, addressing limitations of the traditional flap method.
