Of our 55 patients treated for lower extremity osteomyelitis, 91% underwent debridement and microvascular muscle flap coverage with eradication of their infections and restoration of ambulation. This series of patients helps to solidly establish the efficacy of this approach to the treatment of osteomyelitis.
