Abstract
Management of anterior knee defects represents quite a challenging situation and still a matter of debate, above all in case of exposed knee prosthesis. To promote wound healing, the tissue transferred should provide adequate blood supply and appropriately fill the defect. In our experience, the gastrocnemius flap and the proximal-based saphenous neurocutaneous artery flap are the most suitable and favourable options because of the reliability and safety of vascular supply and the relative ease of harvest.
