Lower limb reconstruction is most commonly required following compound fractures of the leg. These traumatic injuries often result in damage not only to the leg bones but also significant skin and soft tissue injury.
Without adequate skin coverage the orthopaedically corrected fracture is prone to infections and non-union of fractures. Plastic surgery is used to reconstruct the skin and soft tissue using skin grafts, local flaps and free flap reconstruction.
