By using the property known as Federer-Fleming conjecture (cf. [7, 3.1.17]), recently resolved by B. Bojarski, we prove the following Lusin type result:
Theorem. Let
 $A\subset {\mathbb{R}}^n$
be a measurable set and let
 $k$
be a nonnegative integer. Assume that to each
 $x\in A$
corresponds a polynomial
 $P_x: {\mathbb{R}}^n\to {\mathbb{R}}$
of degree less or equal to
 $k+1$
such that
 $\begin{equation*} {\rm{ap}}\lim\limits_{x\to a}\frac{(D^\alpha P_x)(x)-(D^\alpha P_a)(x)}{\vert x-a\vert} = 0 \end{equation*}$
holds for all
 $\alpha\in {\mathbb{N}}^n$
such that
 $\vert\alpha\vert\leq k$
, at a.e.
 $a\in A$
. Then, for each
 $\varepsilon >0$
, there exists
 $\varphi\in C^{k+1}( {\mathbb{R}}^n)$
such that
 ${\mathcal L}^n \bigg(A\setminus \bigcap\limits_{\vert\alpha\vert\leq k+1}\{x\in A : D^\alpha\varphi (x) = (D^\alpha P_x)(x)\}\bigg)\leq\varepsilon.$
We will use such a theorem to provide a simple new proof of a well-known property of Sobolev functions.
