    Abstract

    Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), particularly those on the hindfoot, pose significant challenges due to their poor healing qualities and the high risk of complications, including limb amputation. The Reverse Superficial Sural Artery Flap (RSSA) technique has been proposed as a viable limb-salvage solution, leveraging its robust vascular supply for effective wound coverage.
