Abstract
We report a post-traumatic case of tendoachilles injury with an overlying skin defect. Following debridement, tendon reconstruction was done by using vascularised peroneus brevis musculotendinous unit and proximal part of the same muscle provided the skin cover. Postoperative recovery was uneventful. At 2 years follow-up, he had a near-normal gait. The main advantage of this flap is not being only a local flap but also providing a vascularised tendon.
