Lymphaticovenular anastomoses for lymphedema treatment: 18 months postoperative outcomes.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:The profunda artery perforator (PAP) flap is a new addition to our reconstructive armamentarium. In effort to better understand patient candidacy for the PAP flap we characterized the profunda artery perforators on preoperative imaging. METHODS:A retrospective review was completed of 40 preoperative poste...

abstract：:The groin flap is one of the most usable flaps. It provides a large amount of skin coverage with an easily concealed donor site. However, when the flap is used to reconstruct areas of the neck, hand, or foot, a secondary procedure for defatting is usually necessary. Thinner flaps are thought to be more useful in these...
