RT Journal Article T1 Reconstruction of plantar surgical defects with synthetic dermal matrix and split‐thickness skin grafts: A case series and functional podiatry outcomes A1 Gil-Pallares, Pedro A1 Heras-Sotos, Cristina de las K1 Acral melanoma K1 Dermal matrix K1 Integra K1 Reconstruction AB Reconstruction of surgical defects after wide local excision of acral melanoma on the sole should allow patients to walk and bear weight. Moreover, certain options such as local transposition flaps can compromise follow-up. We present a case series of surgical defects on weight-bearing areas of the sole reconstructed using a synthetic dermal matrix and a split-thickness skin graft. This approach prevents surrounding tissue displacement and results in good functional outcomes assessed by baropodometry and computer-based podoscopy.
