Abstract
Since 1974 we have performed muscle flap transposition (myoplasty) for the treatment of a skin loss of the lower leg with associated exposure of the bone. In order that the operative treatment may be completed in one stage, mesh skin graft was done simultaneously with muscle transfer. Twelve cases so far have been treated successfully by this procedure, the mesh skin graft taking well on the muscle flap.Keywords
