Reconstruction of Pretibial Defect Using Pedicled Perforator Flaps
BACKGROUND Coverage of defects of the pretibial area remains a challenge for surgeons. The difficulty comes from the limited mobility and availability of the overlying skin and soft tissue. We applied variable pedicled perforator flaps to overcome the disadvantages of local flaps and free flaps on the pretibial area. METHODS Eight patients who had the defects in the anterior tibial area were ...
متن کاملPerforator Flaps for Reconstruction of Lower Limb Defects
BACKGROUND Reconstruction of soft tissue defects in the lower third of the leg remains challenging. Anatomical constraints limit the local options available for complex defects especially lower third of leg. Local flaps based on perforator vessels are raising interest in reconstructive surgery of the limbs. We present our experience with perforator flaps for reconstruction of soft tissue def...
متن کاملUse of Local Perforator Flaps for Post Burn Reconstruction
BACKGROUND Mainstay of post-burn reconstruction is release and split skin grafting. Pedicle flaps are cumbersome to the patient, require multiple procedures and hospitalization. Free flaps are technically demanding and facilities are not universally available. Here we evaluated the local perforator flaps for post-burn reconstruction. METHODS We have used sixteen perforator propellar flaps fo...
متن کاملReconstruction of a Posterior Trunk Defect using a Pedicled Dorsolateral Posterior Intercostal Artery Perforator Flap
Im ag es IMAGES area [2]. Various regional musculocutaneous flaps have played an important role in reconstruction of the posterior trunk [1,2]. However, they have shortcomings of sacrificing underlying muscle and donor site morbidity. Perforator flaps have recently been regarded as a good method for reconstruction of such defects [3,4]. Flap extendibility and less invasiveness without sacrifice...
متن کاملBreast reconstruction with perforator flaps.
BACKGROUND Perforator flaps represent the latest in the evolution of soft-tissue flaps. They allow the transfer of the patient's own skin and fat in a reliable manner, with minimal donor-site morbidity. The powerful perforator flap concept allows transfer of tissue from numerous, well-described donor sites to almost any distant site with suitable recipient vessels. Large-volume flaps can be sup...
