The successful use of the reverse sural artery "adipofascial flap" in the management of unstable posterior heel scars is described in 3 patients. The technique of flap harvesting is described, and its advantages are discussed when compared with the reverse sural artery "fasciocutaneous" flap and other techniques of flap reconstruction.
