Popis:	A 63-year-old man presented with intermittent claudication, diabetes, and an ischaemic heel ulcer. After control of infection, the os calcis was left exposed. An aggressive combined infra-inguinal revascularization and reconstruction procedure involving free-tissue transfer resulted in rapid wound healing with independent walking by day 26. Recent improvements in surgical techniques mean that this approach should be considered in selected patients.
