Think big - Plastic surgical treatment of complicated large sacral ulcerations: A case comparison.

CONCLUSION: Using a fillet flap of the lower extremity to cover large sacral ulcers is often the last possibility of surgical treatment. Though many complications can occur, full rehabilitation and social participation is possible after fillet flap surgery even with loss of both legs. Depending on patient's motivation and availability of orthopedic technology like special electric wheel chairs and other tools full mobility can be achieved. PMID: 31802040 [PubMed - in process]
