Lateral Fasciectomy Sparing the Superficial Peroneal Nerve with Simultaneous Mesh Graft in Non-healing Lateral Leg Ulcers of Diverse Vascular Origins: Surgical Technique, Short- and Long-term Results from 44 Legs

摘要

Objectives: The technique of lateral fasciectomy (LF) sparing the superficial peroneal nerve with mesh graft coverage is a novel treatment of non-healing lateral leg ulcers of various vascular origin affecting the fascia. We report short- and long-term results of LF for recalcitrant lateral leg ulcers.
