A one-stage reconstruction of a complex defect of the dorsum of the fo
ot was undertaken with an osteotendofasciocutaneous lateral arm free f
lap in a 21 year old man. A vascularised strip of the triceps tendon w
ith the adjacent part of the olecranon was used to reconstruct a missi
ng tibialis anterior tendon with its insertion into the medial cuneifo
rm bone. Recovery was uneventful and he was discharged from hospital a
fter two weeks.
