[Experience with using a myocutaneous flap, obtained from the gluteus maximus, in covering sacral decubitus wounds].

Nonsurgical treatment of pressure sores of the sacral region showed in long term poor results. After a short review of surgical procedures the method of gluteus maximus myocutaneous flaps is described. The results suggest that the method offers a well vascularised and resistant soft tissue cover of the pressure sore and it can be performed in any surgical department. Stay in hospital may decrease significantly and the hope for a complete rehabilitation increases.
