Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1982
We present our early experience with a flap that should become important to the microsurgeon. The scapular flap is based on the circumflex scapular branch of the subscapular artery and is a versatile, hardy, easily dissected flap. We have used it in 14 cases where a fairly thin flap was indicated. Four of the 14 patients developed complications.

The free flap represents a dramatic one-stage procedure for distant transfer of skin flaps. The operative technique consists of: identification of healthy recipient vessels; isolation of viable island skin flap; distant transfer followed by revascularization via microvascular anastomoses.

Microsurgery, 2003
AbstractThe use of top‐quality tissue in covering soft‐tissue loss, and precocity in reconstructing injuries and restoring function, are major prerequisites for obtaining a good surgical result. Earlier methods of reconstruction, based on a delay, for various periods of time, in reconstruction, have gradually become obsolete.

Journal of Urology, 1982
AbstractBecause of dissatisfaction with the length of time and number of operative procedures necessary for our previously reported phalloplasty procedure we have attempted a free flap approach in 3 patients. This procedure was successful in 2 patients, while in 1 a staged construction was necessary after failure of the free flap.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1992
Microsurgical transfer of tissue has become a primary tool of the reconstructive surgeon. The elderly, as a growing segment of our society, are requiring free-tissue transfers in proportion to their numbers. To investigate the potential morbidity of free-tissue transfers in the elderly, we studied consecutive populations of 31 patients above the age of

THE FREE MUSCULOCUTANEOUS FLAP
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1976We report the transfer of a free musculocutaneous compound flap, including the gracilis muscle, in one stage by microvascular surgery. The advantages of this free flap are discussed.

AbstractA retrospective analysis of 75 consecutive free flap patients, operated on during 1989–1990, was performed to find out more about factors associated with free flap failure or immediate vascular complications. The overall failure rate was 9.3% (7/75) and the immediate vascular complication rate 22.7% (17/75).

Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America, 2016
The gracilis free flap is the ideal modality of emotive and spontaneous facial reanimation in patients with a viable contralateral facial nerve. A 2-stage procedure with a cross-face nerve graft followed by gracilis free flap inset is advocated. In this article, the anatomy of the gracilis muscle, alternative neural sources (including the masseteric ...

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1982
A purely cutaneous free flap overlying the infraspinous region of the scapula has been used successfully in three cases. It is of intermediate thickness, predominantly hairless and is based on the cutaneous branch of the circumflex scapular artery. Te dissection of the flap is easy, quick and safe, resulting in a minimal pedicle length of 3 cm but this

Free Flap of Gliding Tissue [PDF]
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 1986 A flap of loose connective tissue based on the thoracodorsal vein and artery and lying between the latissimus dorsi and serratus lateralis can be raised and transferred as a local or free flap. This flap has been used to reconstruct the gliding mechanism in block adhesions of the flexor tendons at wrist level.
