Abstract:
:The distal portion of the flexor aspect of the forearm has been used as the donor site of full-thickness skin grafts, venous skin grafts, and Chinese forearm flaps. This article describes the use of a free flap harvested from the flexor aspect of the wrist and based on the superficial palmar branch of the radial artery to repair skin defects of the hand and fingers. The advantages of this flap are as follows: (1) the operative field is the same; (2) the radial artery is preserved; (3) it is thin, pliable, and hairless and thus can supply a gliding surface for tendons beneath it; (4) when it involves a palmaris longus tendon and/or the palmar cutaneous branch of the median nerve, it can be used as a vascularized tendon or nerve graft; and (5) in view of the flow-through type of the pedicle of the flap, the digital artery can be reconstructed simultaneously. However, it should be noted that a hypesthesia in the proximal central carpal area remains when the palmar cutaneous branch of the median nerve is harvested as a vascularized nerve graft. The scar of the donor site should be left in the distal wrist crease. If it is not lying in the distal wrist crease, it may suggest that the patient has tried to commit suicide.
