The Versatility of Perforator-Based Propeller Flap for Reconstruction of Distal Leg and Ankle Defects
Introduction. Soft tissue coverage of distal leg and ankle region represents a challenge and such defect usually requires a free flap. However, this may lead to considerable donor site morbidity, is time consuming, and needs facility of microsurgery. With the introduction of perforator flap, management of small- and medium-size defects of distal leg and ankle region is convenient, less time con...
متن کاملFree Medial Plantar Flap Connection with a Posterior Tibial Artery Flap in Reconstruction of Fore–Mid Foot Skin Defect
BACKGROUND Although there are many surgical treatments for covering the skin defect of the fore-mid foot, how to reconstruct the weight-bearing region remains a challenge. The weight-bearing region of the sole needs to withstand the pressure and shearing stresses of walking, so the plantar skin is anatomically different from other skins in the areas of texture, thickness, subcutaneous tissue, e...
متن کاملDistally Based Sural Artery Flap: A Workhorse to Cover the Soft Tissue Defects of Distal Leg, Ankle and Foot
Background & Aims: Distal leg, ankle and foot injuries are relatively common; and because of lack of soft tissue and poor blood supply in these areas, one of the common problems in these patients is soft tissue necrosis. Exposed orthopedic implants can be used as open reduction internal fixator (ORIF) in these regions. Methods: During 2013-2014, 14 patients (11 men and 3 women) with a mean age ...
متن کاملAbstract: Obturator Artery Perforator Propeller Flap for Scrotal and Vulvar Reconstruction
Suday, Sptem er 5, 2016 significantly increases the risk of postoperative vaginal stenosis. This paper proposes a simple technique for the reconstruction of thin septa, utilising two interdigitating Y-flaps. The authors also present their 7-year experience of utilising this technique. Custom made illustrations and serial intraoperative photographs will accompany the podium presentation in order...
متن کاملSHORT COMMUNICATION Reverse medial plantar artery flap
Coverage of soft tissue defects of the sole has been one of the major challenges of reconstructive surgery. The sole is a specialized structure, with thick skin and septae in the subcutaneous tissues which make it especially resistant to damage from shear forces and high pressures typical of the sole. Replacement by non-sole skin such as by dorsalis pedis, reverse sural and free flaps will be m...
