Propeller Flaps in Lower Limb Reconstruction: Case Series

Introduction: Traditionally in reconstruction of lower limb soft tissue defects, muscle flaps have been the ‘Gold Standard’ for Gustillo Anderson Grade III B fracture involving upper and middle third defects. Lower third defects were usually reconstructed with free flaps. Evolution in flap surgery has enabled fasciocutaneous, adipofascial and superthin flaps to be harvested for the purpose of r...

Propeller Flaps: A Literature Review.

BACKGROUND/AIM Since their introduction in 1991, propeller flaps are increasingly used as a surgical approach to loss of substance. The aim of this study was to evaluate the indications and to verify the outcomes and the complication rates using this reconstructing technique through a literature review. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search on PubMed was performed using "propeller flap", "fasciocuta...

Lower limb perforator propeller flaps - clinical applications.

BACKGROUND A great variety of flaps have been used in lower limb reconstructive surgery: random pattern flaps, axial flaps and free microsurgical transfers with many variants. After further research on the cutaneous blood supply and improvement of microsurgical techniques, perforator propeller flaps began to be studied and used. MATERIAL AND METHOD A propeller flap is defined as an insular fl...
