[Clinical application of relaying anteromedial thigh perforator flap in resurfacing of donor defect after anterolateral thigh flap transfer].
摘要
Objective: To investigate the clinical application of relaying anteromedial thigh (AMT) perforator flap in resurfacing of the donor defect after anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap transfer. Methods: . The disease duration ranged from 6 to 18 months (mean, 8.8 months). Results: The AMT perforators existed consistently in all patients. All flaps survived, and primary healing of wounds was obtained at recipient sites and donor sites. No vascular crisis, wound dehiscence, or obvious swelling occurred. All patients were followed up 6-20 months (mean, 9.4 months). There was only linear scar at the donor sites, and the function of thighs was normal. The color and contour of the flaps were satisfactory. Conclusion: The relaying AMT perforator flap is an ideal choice to reconstruct the donor site of ALT flap.
