OBJECTIVE: To describe our pioneer national experience with 11 patients with soft tissue defects in the distal 1/3 of the leg, ankle and forefoot treated with extensor digitorum brevis muscle flap (EDB). METHODS: Between November 2009 and July 2012 11 patients were operated with the flap technique. We operated nine men and two women aged between 10 and 66 years. The surgical indications were acute trauma in four patients and post-traumatic osteomyelitis in seven patients. The small defects were covered ranging from 3x3 to 6x3 cm. The patch was applied with proximal stalk in most cases. RESULTS: Complete healing and infectious cure were obtained in all cases, despite one loss. CONCLUSION: The EDB flap is a feasible and safe technique to repair foot, ankle and distal leg losses. Suffering, dehiscence and delayed healing of the EDB end flap donor area may, however, occur. L-shaped incisions should be avoided for muscle lifting. Level of Evidence IV, Case series.

“…The morbidity and severe patient discomfort associated with this technique has reduced its popularity considerably. 19 As shown previously, the EDB-flap can be considered a good reconstructive option for small defects in the lower leg and foot region, 8,11,20 which also we have confirmed in this study. The small size and the thin contour of the flap in addition to the relative simplicity of harvesting are advantages that in some instances make the flap superior when compared with free tissue transfer or other local flap options.…”
