L.J. Treharne, P. Banwell, M. Cadier  British Journal of Plastic Surgery  Volume 56, Issue 1, Pages (January 2003) DOI: /S (03)

2 Figure 1 Foot of the 2-year-old patient following meningococcal septicaemia. Note the preservation of the heel pad and the metatarsophalangeal area, suggesting the possibility of distal reconstruction. British Journal of Plastic Surgery  , 55-57DOI: ( /S (03) )

3 Figure 2 Bone scan performed preoperatively. The arrows indicate an avascular portion of the distal tibia, which makes distal reconstruction of the foot unrealistic. British Journal of Plastic Surgery  , 55-57DOI: ( /S (03) )
