Reconstruction of the Lower Extremity Using Free Flaps
BACKGROUND The aim of lower-extremity reconstruction has focused on wound coverage and functional recovery. However, there are limitations in the use of a local flap in cases of extensive defects of the lower-extremities. Therefore, free flap is a useful option in lower-extremity reconstruction. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of 49 patients (52 cases) who underwent lower-extremit...
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...

The present article is about our experience of lower limb reconstruction using fasciocutaneous flaps. METHODS 20 fasciocutaneous flaps in 15 males and 5 females were used for the wound / defect of lower limb...
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...
