Predicting perforator location on preoperative imaging for the profunda artery perforator flap.

abstract：:Normal myelinated fibers are stained "red" by modified trichrome staining of the frozen section of the nerve. We have used this technique for rapid assessment of the anatomical integrity of the proximal nerve stump by identifying well-preserved myelinated fibers. This technique can also identify degenerating and degen...
