Pedicled perforator flaps are also called local perforator flaps, or island perforator flaps. It combines the advantages of pedicled local flaps (good color and texture match, like-with-like reconstruction), pedicled regional flaps (up to 180° arc of rotation), pedicled distant flap (vascular reliable and larger size), and without microsurgical ...

Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction
Breast Disease, 2002A perforator flap consists of skin and fat harvested from a donor site nourished by myocutaneous perforators while sparing the donor muscle for function and strength. This flap type has revolutionized microvascular free tissue transfer and the technique has been successfully applied to well-established donor sites for autologous breast reconstruction ...

Perforator Flaps in the Upper Extremity
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2010Perforator flaps are frequently used for defect coverage for the whole body. There are strong indications for the use of perforator flaps in the upper extremity. This article demonstrates the possibilities for defect coverage with perforator flaps as well as their anatomic and technical considerations.

Perforator Flaps - The History of Evolution
Handchirurgie · Mikrochirurgie · Plastische Chirurgie, 2002This article reviews the recent evolution of perforator flaps. The tie between perforator flaps and skin flaps as well as perforator flaps and musculocutaneous flaps is explained. The paraumbilical perforator flap, the deep inferior epigastric artery flap (DIEP flap), the gluteal artery perforator flap (GAP flap) and various perforator flaps and ...

Perforator Patterns of the Ulnar Artery Perforator Flap
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2012Flaps based on the ulnar artery have never gained the same popularity as the radial forearm flap, despite several potential advantages. In this article, the authors describe a true ulnar artery perforator flap with perforator mapping.Thirty-eight consecutive patients who underwent ulnar artery perforator flap surgery were included in the study.

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2010
Soft tissue defects in the hand and wrist can be challenging problems for the hand surgeon. The retrograde radial forearm fasciocutaneous flap has emerged in recent years as the workhorse flap to cover many hand and wrist defects. However, recognition of the intrinsic limitations of this flap has led to the development of other alternative flaps to ...

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2013
Because thinning of the pectoralis major myocutaneous flap is impossible due to blood circulation, it is difficult to produce thin flaps. Although the pectoral flap and the deltopectoral flap are the best flaps that provide a highly desirable color-texture match to facial skin, their reach is restricted and they require resection in 2 stages.

Bulky flaps cause aesthetically unacceptable outcomes and result in poor function in areas such as the feet, the hands, the face, and the neck. A thinned perforator flap suggests a uniformly thin adipose layer at the flap elevation. To simplify and avoid confusion in the nomenclature, the term thinned perforator flap is used to replace terms such as ...

Latissimus dorsi perforator flap
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2003Although exact information on the distribution of reliable perforators has not been published, its underlying reproducible pattern may be experienced with clinical trials. The LD perforator flap is a typical example of thin perforator flap and it can be used widely as a resurfacing tool or reconstructive modality with various composition.
