Abstract Objective：To explore and analyze the clinical efficacy of the outer retrograde tarsal artery flap of skin and soft tissue defects of the foot.Method：Retrospectively to analyze the clinical data of forefoot skin and soft tissue defects with 15 cases treated in our hospital from May 2012 to May 2014， observe surgical method underwent lateral retrograde tarsal artery flap and explore clinical efficacy of the situation.Result：There were three cases in 15 patients with skin flap necrosis after one week of time， accounting for 20.00%.After timely medication， the flap survived.12 patients were successfully flap survival， without necrosis， accounting for 80.00%.Patients had received for a period of 7-22 months of follow-up， and average follow-up time was 14.5 months.During follow-up， the patients with flap survival conditions were observed and found that the group of patients were with soft flap to keep the color consistent with the surrounding tissue， and no signs of wear， with normal quality of life.Conclusion：Retrograde lateral tarsal artery flap of skin and soft tissue defects can be enough to achieve significant result.The advantage is that the flap thickness is moderate， with strong wear resistance and vascular anatomy fixed position， in favor of the full diameter thick blood.It is worthy of further study and promote.
