Experience with sixteen consecutive cases of lower leg skin loss has confirmed the reliability of Pontén's fascio-cutaneous or "super flap" (1981) in the management of these difficult injuries. The technique has several important advantages compared with the conventional lower leg flaps of both the ipsi-lateral and cross-leg variety.
