The basic principles of a single-lobe flap are discussed along with the description of a modified slide-swing rotational flap. This rotation flap is called the Schrudde flap, and it has many applications in the treatment of skin defects of the foot and ankle. This rotation skin flap procedure provides excellent end results with high patient acceptance.
The authors provide a detailed description of effective surgical techniques for painful plantar skin lesions of the foot that are not amenable to simple excisional procedures. Modified unilobed and bilobed skin flaps are described, emphasizing step-by-step design and procedure performance. These advanced techniques offer numerous advantages over other excisional and flap methods, such as being reproducible and yielding predictable results.
