Abstract
The vascularized fibula osteocutaneous and fasciocutaneous free flap was transplanted to a surgical patient with a gunshot comminuted fracture, a defect of middle third of the diaphysis of right forearm with Ilizarov fixation on it and a defect of soft tissues on radial side of right forearm in a chronic wound process.
It was achieved perfect engraftment of the flap and relief of the wound process in the early postoperative period. The synostosis of the bone part of the flap with fragments of the radial bone happened in 5 months after the operation.
