Reconstruction of distal hand and foot defects with the free proximal peroneal artery perforator flap.

abstract：:The distally-based anterolateral thigh flap is an attractive option for proximal leg and knee coverage but venous congestion is common. Restoration of antegrade venous drainage via great saphenous vein supercharge to the proximal flap vein is proposed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare outcomes of ...
