Inframalleolar bypass is an effective intervention for chronic limb threatening ischemia. A successful outcome can be compromised by early pedal wound disruption with secondary bypass exposure. We describe the case of a 74-year-old man with a WIfI (wound, ischemia, foot infection) clinical stage 4 foot who underwent popliteal–dorsalis pedis bypass, complicated by early skin necrosis overlying the pedal anastomosis. This necessitated a multidisciplinary approach to obtain tissue coverage over the anastomosis. The wound healed within 28 days, and at 2 years, the patient was mobilizing independently. We outline the approach taken and discuss the management of this challenging limb salvage problem. |
