Perforator Branch Flaps

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 2020
Modern microsurgical reconstruction aims to achieve functional and satisfactory esthetic outcome and the primary thinning procedure results in one-stage reconstruction. However, current techniques are lacking preoperative knowledge of the peripheral perforator in the adipose layer.

Pedicled Perforator Flaps

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2009
Described in this study is a surgical concept that supports the "consider and use a pedicled perforator flap whenever possible and indicated" approach to reconstruct a particular skin defect. The operation is entirely free-style; the only principle is to obtain a pedicled perforator flap to reconstruct the defect. The perforators are marked with a hand-

Perforator flap entity

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2003
The perforator flap is not a new concept in microsurgery but there is still confusion. The number of centers that is using these flaps for various indications is increasing. Studies about the differences between these flaps and the conventional flaps, including donor site morbidity and long-term follow-ups, will be seen in the medical literature ...

Perforator Flaps and Supermicrosurgery

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2010
The introduction of supermicrosurgery, which allows the anastomosis of smaller caliber vessels and microvascular dissection of vessels ranging from 0.3 to 0.8mm in diameter, has led to the development of new reconstructive techniques. New applications of this technique are for crushed fingertip replantations with venule grafts, toe tip transfers for ...

Free Perforator Flaps in Children

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2005
Raising perforator flaps is said to be a tedious procedure. The benefits, however, are great. In adults, perforator flaps have proved their usefulness and reliability in various clinical situations. In children, donor sites for free flaps are particularly scarce because of the need for a long and reliable vascular pedicle of sufficient size.

The Propeller Perforator Flap

2021
The propeller flap has been recently been defined by the Tokyo consensus in 2011 as: “ an islanded flap that reaches the recipient site through an axial rotation of ≥ 90 degrees.” The propeller flap is similar to the propeller of a boat with two blades moving around a pivot point. The first authors to describe the use of a propeller flap were Hyakusoku

Cranial Epigastric Perforator Flap: A Rat Model of a True Perforator Flap

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2003
The major advantage of a true perforator flap is the ability to capture the skin portion of what previously was a musculocutaneous flap, while totally excluding the muscle for function preservation. To understand better the physiology and dynamics of this flap subtype, a comparable and reliable animal model is essential.

The Posterior Thigh Perforator Flap or Profunda Femoris Artery Perforator Flap

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2007
The thigh donor site has been used extensively for microsurgical tissue transfer; however, the posterior thigh has been neglected as a potential donor site. The perforators of the profunda femoris artery supply large cutaneous territories that could be useful for lower extremity coverage.

Perforator flaps—how many perforators are necessary to keep a flap alive?

British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2014
Perforator flaps are becoming increasingly important in reconstructive microsurgery because of their reduced donor-site morbidity. However, one drawback is partial necrosis caused by vasospasm or inconsistency of delicate perforator vessels. In this study we have evaluated the number and capacity of perforator vessels with respect to the size of a flap,

Soleus Perforator Flap

2011
The soleus perforator flap basically is a “true perforator flap” with a short pedicle, consisting of septo- or septomyocutaneous perforators on which anastomoses are performed; thus, none of the main vessels of the lower leg has to be sacrificed. The perforators mostly arise from the peroneal vessels and are exposed at the proximal half of the lateral ...
