Fat necrosis in deep inferior epigastric perforator flaps: an ultrasound-based review of 202 cases.

abstract：:Rheumatoid arthritis affects approximately 1 percent of the adult population. Bilateral symmetric involvement of the wrist occurs in 85 percent of these patients, with recurrent flares and relentless progression. Anatomic changes consist of radiocarpal, intercarpal, and radioulnar subluxation and joint destruction. Fo...
