SummaryThe management of high-energy trauma to the foot often requires multiple tissues reconstructive procedures with various technical options. The authors report the case of a patient presenting an extensive defect of the medioplantar region of the right foot involving an almost complete (90%) medial cuneiform bone loss. A deferred operation with saphenous cross-leg flap and interposition of a cement spacer was first performed. Reconstruction of the bone defect with corticocancellous iliac bone graft was subsequently carried out at two months post-trauma. At four months follow-up, the bone and soft tissues healing were good. At 24 months follow-up, the patient could return to normal professional and sports activities. The saphenous cross-leg flap has proven to be a reliable reconstructive procedure. The use of the modified Masquelet technique ensured an anatomical reconstruction and a satisfying final functional outcome.
