- Abstract:
- We describe the reconstruction of a defect of the medial malleolus which was the result of an accident in a ten-year-old child. A graft from the iliac crest, with the apophyseal cartilage and perichondrium, was used for reconstruction of the medial malleolus, the growth plate and the adjacent metaphyseal defect, respectively. The soft-tissue defect was covered with a free scapular flap with microvascular anastomosis. Three years after the injury stability of the ankle is excellent with adequate growth of the reconstructed epiphyseal plate.
