Abstract
This article reports 4 cross-leg free composite tissue flaps for repairing the severe composite tissue defects in lower leg without suitable adjacent recipient vasculature for microvascular anastomosis. These flaps are safe and effective alternative in lower extremity reconstruction. İn the absence of appropriate recipient vessels cross-leg free flaps may provide successful repair. Cross-leg flaps are a good choice for reconstructing traumatized lower extremities, especially when free flaps cannot be used. The objective of this study was to introduce a method for repairing large soft-tissue defects on the lower extremity

Abstract
Bu çalışmada alt ekstremite tip 3c açık kırıklarda çapraz bacak flebi ile yapılan rekonstruksiyon uygulanan 4 hasta sunulmaktadir. Çapraz bacak flebi özellikle verici saha damar yapılarının ağır hasara uğradığı kemiğin açıkta olduğu yaralanmalarda çapraz bacak flebi, taşıdığı ek avantajlar ile güvenilir ve uygun bir seçenektir. Serbest fleplerin uygun olmadığı hastalarda iyi bir seçenektir.
