MRI anatomical preoperative evaluation of the distally-based peroneus brevis muscle flap in reconstructive surgery of the lower limb

The distally-based peroneus brevis muscle flap has proved to be a simple solution for small-to moderate-sized wounds of the lower limb. The length of the muscle belly suitable for coverage is a crucial parameter. In this study we evaluated the capability of 3D-MRI of the lower limb to measure it preoperatively.
