We report a case of free fillet flaps based on the posterior tibial artery (PTA) and anterior tibial artery (ATA). A 41\u2010year\u2010old man was crushed under a truck; his right leg suffered an open tibia and fibula fracture (Gustilo IIIB) with extensive soft tissue loss, while his left foot was amputated at the tarsal level. He initially underwent Chopart\u2010level amputation of the left limb, which was subsequently revised to a below\u2010knee amputation. Two free fillet flaps were harvested from the amputated limb: one based on the PTA (15\u2009\u00d7\u200913\u2009cm) and the other based on the ATA (20\u2009\u00d7\u20098\u2009cm). Two chain\u2010linked fillet flaps via flow\u2010through anastomosis were used to cover the soft tissue defect exposing the right tibia. Postoperatively, partial necrosis occurred in the ATA\u2010based fillet flap, which healed after reoperation. The patient regained mobility with a prosthesis. Free chain\u2010linked fillet flaps harvested from a limited amputation segment are a feasible and useful option for reconstructing complex soft tissue defects without additional donor site morbidity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/micr.70102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,31]],"date-time":"2025-07-31T12:44:26Z","timestamp":1753965866000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Free Chain\u2010Linked Fillet Flaps From a Contralateral Chopart Amputation for Reconstruction of an Extensive Lower Extremity Defect: A Case Report and Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"45","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0761-4147","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Keisuke","family":"Shimbo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Hiroshima Prefectural Hospital  Hiroshima Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuki","family":"Aoki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Hiroshima Prefectural Hospital  Hiroshima Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tatsuhiko","family":"Saiki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Orthopedic Surgery Critical Care Medical Center, Hiroshima Prefectural Hospital  Hiroshima Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SAP.0b013e31819537c9"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/2050313X18823438"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa012604"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1008-1275(08)60077-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.29252\/wjps.9.3.339"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.prs.0000232222.30119.69"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/micr.70054"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.47102\/annals-acadmedsg.V44N5p191"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjps.2009.02.075"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjps.2020.10.070"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jso.25795"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006534-200109150-00011"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","first-page":"62","article-title":"Double Free Fillet Foot Flap: Sole of Foot and Dorsalis Pedis in Severe Bilateral Lower Extremity Trauma, a 10\u2010Year Follow\u2010Up Case Report.
