Soft tissue defects in the posterior ankle region with underlying Achilles tendon loss pose a reconstructive challenge to both Orthopaedic and Plastic surgeons. Such injuries can result in a severely debilitating sequelae for the patient, therefore reconstruction of the area must provide reliable function and durability with minimal complications and aesthetically pleasing results to enable normal foot wear. We describe the case of a twenty-seven year old male, who presented following a traumatic open rupture of the Achilles tendon and failed reverse sural artery flap. We performed a single stage composite soft tissue reconstruction with a free anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap and rolled vascularised Tensor Fascia Lata (TFL) for functional Achilles tendon reconstruction. The patient had no post-operative complications and was able to fully weight bear and dorsiflex his foot beyond ninety degrees at seven month follow-up. Whilst many options are available to reconstruct this area, we review the literature to illustrate the advantages of using this technique to achieve all of the above factors, and advocate for all foot and ankle surgeons to be aware of its use in their reconstructive repertoire.

Abstract Background Major pelvic trauma (MPT) with traumatic hemipelvectomy (THP) is rare, but it is a catastrophic health problem caused by high-energy injury leading to separation of the lower extremity from the axial skeleton, which is associated with a high incidence of intra-abdominal and multi-systemic injuries. THP is generally performed as a lifesaving protocol to return the patient to an active life. Case report A 12-year male patient exposed to major pelvic trauma with bilateral THP survived the trauma and multiple lifesaving operations. The anterolateral thigh flap is the method used for wound reconstruction. The follow-up was ended with colostomy and cystostomy with wheelchair mobilization. To the best of our knowledge, there have been a few bilateral THP reports, and our case is the second one to be successfully treated with an anterolateral thigh flap. Conclusion MPT with THP is the primary cause of death among trauma patients. Life-threatening hemorrhage is the usual cause of death, which is a strong indication for THP to save life.
