Abstract: Comparison of Results and Details of Upper Extremity Reconstruction with Free Vs Perforator Flap
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION: In reconstruction of upper extremity defects there are many options like local, free, island and perforator flaps. Reconstruction with perforator flaps is new trend in plastic surgery.1 Because of good vascularity, upper extremity is one of the most suitable part of the body for designing well known and also ad hoc perforator flaps. In this study we aimed to compare of reconstruction of upper extremity deformities with free versus perforator flaps.

BACKGROUND Reconstruction of upper extremity deformities continues to be a challenge to the reconstructive surgeon. Various loco regional, distant and free flaps are available for reconstruction. However, each has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Of the commonly performed local flaps, radial artery forearm flap, and the posterior interosseus artery flap stand out prominently. Rec...
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 کاملVascular Anatomy and Clinical Application of the Free Proximal Ulnar Artery Perforator Flaps
BACKGROUND There is a dearth of detailed published work on the anatomy of ulnar artery perforators. The objective of this study was to fully document the vascular basis of the free proximal ulnar artery perforator flap and report its use in reconstruction of the hand. METHODS (1) The ulnar artery perforators were studied in 25 fresh cadavers and 10 cast preparations. Cadavers were injected wi...

The purpose of this paper was to discuss an overview of the current clinical practice of microsurgery with a specific use of free anterolateral flap as one of the commonest flaps used in reconstructive surgery. A systematic review was performed through all English publication that goes to Pubmed during the period of 1997 to 2006 using keywords: “anterolateral thigh perforator flap.” The studies...
