dc.description.abstractFew methods of closure of skin defects lying over the tendo Achilles have been described. The de-epithelialised turn-over flap is one of them but it cannot be used in the presence of a scar proximal to the defect. We describe a modification ("The Lazy-V") of the de-epithelialised turn-over flap which gives it a rotation arc, thus enhancing the versatility of the procedure. This modification is presented with an illustrative case report and a review of the literature.
