While there are many reasons the medial gastrocnemius flap is often the favored treatment for soft tissue defects around the knee area, this flap has some disadvantages. Reduced volume at the distal part of the flap and a short reach complicate provision of sufficient coverage for soft tissue defects superior to the patella and the lateral knee. In order to overcome these shortcomings, we modified the typical surgical technique by combining a medial gastrocnemius muscle flap and a medial sural artery perforator flap. This approach was applied to four patients who had developed deep infections and skin and soft tissue defects around the knee joint after total knee arthroplasty. The surgeries were successful. Dead space was well-filled and wounds healed without complications in all patients. This modified medial gastrocnemius myocutaneous flap provides a new option for treating challenging skin and soft tissue defects caused by deep infection after total knee arthroplasty.

Buttock soft tissue defects can be encountered due to many causes and also have many treatment solutions. Usually, defects are common on one side of the buttocks and cutaneous skin flaps in place, local or regional used. The article analyzes a rather rare case with a soft tissue defect in the buttocks on both sides as a necrotic sequela after injecting fillers for cosmetic purposes. After treatment of necrotizing inflammation, the sequelae left behind is a concave scar and deformed buttock on both sides. The local fat flaps are not valuable in this case, while the free fat flap will face many risks of failure due to the use of 2 flaps on both sides, the post-operative care position is also very difficult, easy to cause tension, compress the vascular pedicles. This clinical case with the use of bilateral DIEP flaps, and the postoperative results in this case are analyzed and evaluated in the article.
