The current review provided a summary of reported outcomes of free heel reconstruction in the literature till date. With the current evidence largely limited to small cohort studies (level IV evidence), there were no significant differences found between reconstructive options. These findings serve as a call to action for more reconstructive surgeons to collaborate on multi-institutional prospective studies with robust outcomes assessment. As such, an ideal flap for reconstruction of the weight-bearing heel has not yet been made clear.
