Their defects were caused by trauma. These defects were all located on the plantar forefoot. The free tissue flaps transposed to reconstruct defects were anterolateral thigh flaps, groin flaps, and latissimus dorsi flaps. Flap size varied in width 4-cm and length (6\u201316\u00a0cm). The mean size of flaps was 80.3\u00a0cm\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      .
