The deltoid free flap is a fasciocutaneous flap that should be thin, hairless, of an adequate size, and capable of sensory reinnervation. Because of its excellent color-matching and texture-matching characteristics, it has recently been widely used for the reconstruction of soft-tissue defects during oral and maxillofacial surgery. Furthermore, a characteristic of oral and maxillofacial soft-tissue defects is that they are not large; therefore, flap size will be small, allowing the donor site to be directly closed. Because of natural variation in parts of the anatomy, there has sometimes been great difficulty in clinical application. The authors decided to study this by performing anatomical studies of the deltoid region on 21 cadavers. The result indicates that the pedicle of the deltoid free flap penetrates the "quadrangular space" in 90 percent of cases but passes and does not penetrate the quadrangular space in the remaining cases. The authors also confirmed that the skin has a vascular network comprising five layers and, furthermore, that the vascular network of the deep fascia is dense. The authors also report six cases of its clinical use complicated by anatomic variation and local infection in which the deltoid flap showed a completely successful outcome.  相似文献

An anatomic study of the septocutaneous vessels of the leg   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
The vascular anatomy of the skin and fascia of the leg were studied in 20 cadaver legs that were injected and dissected under magnification to identify the origin, course, and distribution of vessels from the subfascial level to the skin. In addition to the longitudinally oriented fasciocutaneous arteries and the musculocutaneous perforators, the study demonstrated a third and important system of blood supply: the septocutaneous vessels. These vessels arise directly from the posterior tibial, anterior tibial, and peroneal arteries, run along the intermuscular septum, pierce the crural fascia, and ramify radially in the subcutaneous tissue superficial to the fascia. Longitudinally oriented anastomotic arcades are formed along the leg between branches of adjacent septocutaneous vessels. Each septocutaneous vessel has one or two venae comitantes. Selected methylene blue injections of the septocutaneous vessels revealed rich staining of the superficial surface of the fascia, the subcutaneous tissue, and distinct longitudinally oriented skin territories. There was no injection of dye in the deep surface of the fascia. It is felt that the septocutaneous vessels constitute an important source of skin circulation in the leg and form the basis for various fasciocutaneous flaps that have useful clinical applications.  相似文献

The anatomic distribution and potential arterial flow patterns of the circumflex scapular artery were investigated by Microfil injection. These studies demonstrated that the circumflex scapular artery lies within the dorsal thoracic fascia, which plays a significant role in the circulation of the overlying skin and subcutaneous tissue. We conclude that scapular/parascapular flaps are fasciocutaneous flaps, the dorsal thoracic fascia can be transferred as a free flap without its overlying skin and subcutaneous tissue, and intercommunication exists between the myocutaneous perforators of the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap and the vascular plexus of the dorsal thoracic fascia. We present microvascular cases in which the vascular properties of the dorsal thoracic fascia facilitated wound closure with free fascia flaps or expanded cutaneous or myocutaneous flaps.  相似文献

The redundant tissues of the anterior neck are well suited as a donor site for fasciocutaneous flaps in head and neck reconstruction, with similar skin quality and numerous underlying perforators. However, historic cadaveric research has limited the use of this as a donor site for the design of long and/or large flaps for fear of vascular compromise. The authors undertook an anatomical study to identify the vascular basis for such flaps and have modified previous designs to offer the versatile and reliable superior thyroid artery perforator (STAP) flap. Forty-five consecutive computed tomographic angiograms of the neck were reviewed, assessing the vascular supply of the anterior skin of the neck. Based on these findings, eight consecutive patients underwent head and neck reconstruction using a flap based on the dominant perforator of the region. In all cases, a perforator larger than 0.5 mm was identified within a 2-cm radius of the midpoint of the sternocleidomastoid muscle at its anterior border. This perforator was seen to emerge through the investing layer of deep cervical fascia as a fasciocutaneous perforator and to perforate the platysma on its ipsilateral side of the neck, proximal to the midline. This was seen to be a superior thyroid artery perforator in 89 of 90 sides and an inferior thyroid artery perforator in one case. Eight consecutive patients underwent preoperative imaging and successful flap planning and execution based on this dominant perforator. The superior thyroid artery perforator (STAP) flap demonstrates reliable vascular anatomy and is well suited to reconstruction of a broad range of head and neck defects.

The blood supply of thigh skin   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The pattern of blood supply to the integument of the thigh is reported. A new technique is described for analyzing the length, direction, and number of arterioles in specimens of cadaver skin and deep fascia. The information obtained from these studies adds to existing knowledge of the anatomic vascular basis of direct cutaneous and musculocutaneous flaps in this region and provides a scientific basis for the elevation of fasciocutaneous flaps in such a way as to aid the achievement of maximum length-to-breadth ratios.  相似文献

Although the gluteal V-Y advancement flap has been recognized as the most reliable method for management of sacral pressure ulcers, its limited mobility has been a challenging problem. The authors present a new modification of the V-Y advancement flap to overcome the problem. After débridement, a large triangle is designed to create a V-Yadvancement flap on the unilateral buttock and the medial half is elevated as a fasciocutaneous flap, preserving the distal perforators in the muscular attachment. Then an arc-shaped incision is made in the gluteus maximus muscle along with the lateral edge of the triangular flap. The split muscle is elevated at a depth above the deeper fascia until sufficient advancement of the flap is obtained. This full-thickness elevation of the gluteus maximus muscle from the distal (lateral) side avoids the impairment of perforators or their mother vessels and achieves great advancement. Thirty-one patients with sacral pressure defects larger than 8 cm in diameter were treated using this surgical procedure. Overall, 93.5 percent of the flaps (29 of 31) healed primarily. The largest defect that was closed with a unilateral flap was 16 cm in diameter. The present technique accomplishes remarkable excursion of the unilateral V-Y fasciocutaneous flap, with high flap reliability and preservation of the contralateral buttock as well as gluteus maximus muscle function.  相似文献

This study describes the use of the posteromedial thigh fasciocutaneous flap for the treatment of ischial pressure sores. The authors prefer this flap because it is the fasciocutaneous flap nearest to the ischial region, it is easy to raise, and it causes no donor-site morbidity. In this study, 11 ischial pressure sores in 10 paraplegic patients were closed using the posteromedial thigh fasciocutaneous flaps. All flaps survived, although two caused distal necrosis; after these same two flaps were readvanced, they survived. After an average follow-up time of 77 months, seven of the 10 patients have had no recurrence of ulcers.This fasciocutaneous flap was previously described by Wang et al. However, this study revealed that the arrangement of the vascular pedicle was different from that described by Wang et al. To reveal the vascular supply of this flap, anatomic dissections were conducted. The source of circulation to this flap was the suprafascial vascular plexus, in addition to the musculocutaneous perforator. The dominant pedicle was the musculocutaneous perforator from either the adductor magnus muscle or the gracilis muscle. The key to safe elevation of this flap was the accurate outlining of the skin island directly over the vascular pedicle and the preservation of the proximal fascial continuity. Of the 11 flaps, two viability problems occurred. These partial flap losses resulted from the failure to properly include the perforator. It is the authors' conclusion that the width of the flap should be greater than 5 cm. In addition, it is safe to make a flap within a 1:3 base-to-length ratio in a fatty, diabetic patient. This posteromedial thigh fasciocutaneous flap was found to be a valuable alternative for reconstruction of primary or recurrent ischial pressure ulcers.  相似文献

The anatomic boundaries and vascular supply of the subgaleal fascia have been described previously. The thin and malleable subgaleal fascia was selected for difficult reconstructive problems in seven patients. This flap has been based on either the supraorbital or the superficial temporal vascular leash. The subgaleal fascia is readily dissected from superficial galea and deep periosteum, leaving behind a well-vascularized scalp and a skin-graftable calvarium. The flap conforms to a cartilage framework for ear reconstruction. It takes a skin graft well. The subgaleal fascia can patch dural defects and fill sinus dead space. It has been used to augment facial contour. Free vascularized transfer of the subgaleal fascia has included the temporoparietal fascia, which was partially split from the subgaleal fascia for bilobed flap resurfacing of the hand. The subgaleal fascial flap should be considered when ultrathin, vascularized coverage is needed.  相似文献

The sandwich temporoparietal free fascial flap for tendon gliding.   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Microsurgical transfer of the superficial and deep temporal fascia based on the superficial temporal vessels has been documented. This article analyzes the functional recovery when each layer of this facial flap is placed on either side of reconstructed or repaired tendons, to recreate a gliding environment. This fascial flap also provided a thin, pliable vascular cover in selected defects of the extremities.Six patients (four male and two female) with tendon loss and skin scarring of the hand (three dorsum, one palmar, and one distal forearm) and posttraumatic scarring of the ankle with tendoachilles shortening (one patient) underwent this procedure. No flap loss was witnessed. Good overall functional recovery and tendon excursion were observed. Complication of partial graft loss was observed in two patients.  相似文献

Island flap supplied by the dorsal branch of the ulnar artery   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
Two cases are reported in which a fasciocutaneous island flap was employed supplied by the ulnaris dorsalis artery after the method proposed by Becker and Gilbert. The original technique has been modified by the authors, and this produces a better venous outflow. The vascular pedicle includes, besides the ascending branch of the artery and the venae comitantes, one of the superficial veins together with its respective subdermal band. A technique is also described that provides an optimal length for the vascular pedicle.  相似文献

External oblique fasciocutaneous flap for elbow coverage   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The external oblique fasciocutaneous pedicle flap can be used for reconstruction of soft-tissue defects of the elbow. This flap has been used in five patients, and results have been good. The technique is appropriate in patients with recurrent defects of the elbow in whom local tissue has been previously used and is no longer available. With the development of local fasciocutaneous units, this method may have limited application. However, because of the relationship of this flap to the elbow, the procedure can be done easily and rapidly with minimal immobilization. It is a clinical impression that blood supply to the skin is enhanced by elevation of its underlying fascia. Anatomic dissections have demonstrated that there is an axial-pattern blood supply to this flap arising from the lateral border of the external oblique muscle.  相似文献

A fasciocutaneous flap for vaginal and perineal reconstruction   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
A skin and fascia flap from the medial thigh is proposed for vaginal and perineal reconstruction. Dissection, vascular injection, and radiographs of 20 fresh cadaver limbs uniformly demonstrated the presence of a communicating suprafascial vascular plexus in the medial thigh. Three to four nonaxial vessels were consistently found to enter the proximal plexus from within 5 cm of the perineum. Preservation of these vessels permitted reliable elevation of a 9 X 20 cm fasciocutaneous flap without using the gracilis muscle as a vascular carrier. Fifteen flaps in 13 patients were used for vaginal replacement and coverage of vulvectomy, groin, and ischial defects. Depending on the magnitude of the defect, simultaneous and independent elevation of the gracilis muscle provided additional vascularized coverage as needed. Our experience indicates that the medial thigh fasciocutaneous flap is a durable, less bulky, and potentially sensate alternative to the gracilis musculocutaneous flap for vaginal and perineal reconstruction.  相似文献

Vascularized outer-table calvarial bone flaps   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Based on an anatomic study of the vascularization of the calvarium in cadavers, a technique for the transfer of vascularized outer-table calvarial bone has been developed. The outer table of the calvarium receives numerous small perforators from its overlying periosteum. The periosteum is continuous with a distinct fascial layer overlying the temporal aponeurosis which we have termed the innominate fascia. Because of a network of anastomosing vessels from proximal branches of the superficial temporal artery and perforating branches of the deep temporal artery, the outer table of the calvarium can be carried on a pedicle which contains the temporal aponeurosis, innominate fascia, and periosteum. Thirty-seven vascularized outer-table calvarial bone flaps have been performed for a variety of craniofacial reconstructive deformities. Remarkable stability and lack of resorption have led the authors to favor this method of reconstruction particularly in poorly vascularized or previously infected recipient beds.  相似文献

Regional nutrient blood flow to musculocutaneous and fasciocutaneous flaps was studied in dogs using 15-microns radiolabeled microspheres, and correlations to bacterial inoculation into closed wound spaces were sought. During the 6-day study period, no differences were found between blood flow to noinoculated versus inoculated flaps. Comparisons of blood flow to the deep surfaces of the flaps showed that blood flow to muscle in musculocutaneous flaps increased rapidly during the first 24 hours and then plateaued, while that to subcutaneous tissue plus fascia in fasciocutaneous flaps demonstrated a gradual and steady increase. The most rapid decline in bacterial counts at the undersurface of both flaps occurred within 24 hours, dropping significantly lower within musculocutaneous flaps. In addition to such surface properties of muscle as tissue ingrowth, rapid early augmentation of muscle blood flow may be largely responsible for superior bacterial suppression observed beneath musculocutaneous flaps.  相似文献

The reversed fasciosubcutaneous flap in the leg   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
R Gumener  A Zbrodowski  D Montandon 《Plastic and reconstructive surgery》1991,88(6):1034-41; discussion 1042-3
A reversed fasciosubcutaneous tissue flap in the leg is described. This distally based flap is vascularized by the perforating cutaneous branches of the peroneal and tibialis posterior arteries. It must carry all its subcutaneous tissue. A study on the vascularization of the subcutaneous tissue reveals the predominance of the vascular network in this layer with regard to the dermal or fascial plane. The dermal vascular network at the donor site is sufficient to let the skin survive without its underlying subcutaneous vascular support. The flap can reach the malleolar and heel region. The advantages of this technique are (1) easy dissection, (2) preservation of the major vascular pedicles of the lower limb, (3) skin preservation at the donor site, thus preserving the shape of the limb, and (4) versatility (it is supple and can adapt to every surface, and it can be grafted on the deep or the superficial side). The addition of this technique to the armamentarium of the reconstructive surgeon has proved to be very useful in repairing soft-tissue defects in the lower limb. Often it can replace the classical fasciocutaneous flap or even a free flap.  相似文献

Acute and chronic burns leave behind a full-thickness defect that always requires a flap cover. Such defects are common in electrical burn injuries of the limbs. This paper deals with 35 patients with full-thickness defects following burns in whom deepithelialized turnover dermis flaps and deepithelialized turnover flaps with deep fascia have been used. This flap is an extension of Hynes's reversed dermis graft and Smahel's deepithelialized turnover flap where there is a larger area of blood supply on the deeper aspect of the dermis. If a good hinge is provided for safe blood supply, such a flap settles well in the defect, and cumbersome multistaged procedures can be avoided. If there is less fatty tissue in the area of flap used, then reversed dermis flaps are ideal because split-skin graft take is good. When there is a lot of fatty tissue on the undersurface of dermis, the fascia is also included to make it a reversed fasciocutaneous flap to augment the blood supply and for better split-skin graft survival. Advantages of the procedure and complications are elaborated.  相似文献

Neurotized fasciocutaneous flaps and split-skin grafted muscle flaps are the most frequently used free flap alternatives for the reconstruction of weight-bearing surfaces of the foot. An objective comparison of the innate characteristics of these two flap types, with respect to long-term stability, has not been possible because sensory reinnervation in the fasciocutaneous flaps has been a confounding factor. This study compares nonsensate fasciocutaneous flaps (n = 9) with nonsensate split-skin grafted muscle flaps (n = 11), with mean follow-up periods of 34.3 and 31.3 months, respectively. Patients completed a form that included questions regarding degree of pain at the operative site, presence of ulcers, ability to wear normal shoes, employment status, and time spent standing on foot. Touch and deep sensation were evaluated with Semmes-Weinstein and vibration tests, respectively. Significantly less pain and less ulceration (p < 0.05) were observed in the fasciocutaneous group. Semmes-Weinstein monofilament tests revealed poorer results with split-skin grafted muscle flaps, compared with fasciocutaneous flaps. These results indicate that even if the sensory protection of fasciocutaneous flaps is not considered, these flaps have superior properties, compared with split-skin grafted muscle flaps.  相似文献

Retroauricular island flap for eye socket reconstruction   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
This paper describes the use of a flap which is the random portion of an island flap based on superficial temporal vessels. The flap has three distinct anatomic portions: the cutaneous portion, which includes the postauricular skin, the triangular deepithelialized scalp and fascia above the ear, which augments random-pattern blood circulation to the cutaneous portion, and the superficial temporal fascia encompassing the vascular pedicle, which is dissected down to the upper pole of the parotid gland and unfolded using a cutback incision between the vascular pedicle and the second portion of the flap in order to increase the reach of the cutaneous portion. The flap has been successfully used in eight patients for reconstruction of missing or contracted eye sockets. In two patients, inconsequential superficial loss of the distal portion of the distal flap was observed. This flap can also be used for reconstruction of the external face, eyelid, and palate as well as soft-tissue augmentation.  相似文献

Complications of 100 consecutive local fasciocutaneous flaps.   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A resurgence of interest in the fasciocutaneous flap has been predicated on its simplicity, availability, and versatility. Its dependability in addition is documented in this analysis of complications accrued in 100 consecutive local applications. Major complications that required further surgical intervention occurred in 15 percent of patients, with an additional 11 percent of patients suffering other minor untoward events. Lower extremity wounds, particularly with concomitant peripheral vascular insufficiency, had a disproportionate share of complications. Early coverage of the acute wound ensured minimal problems, avoiding the enhanced risk of a contaminated wound. No difference in efficacy was apparent upon comparison of the various subtypes of these fasciocutaneous flaps. Not only did the fasciocutaneous flap provide salvage following failure of more conventional techniques, but it has even been proven in the proper circumstances to be a reliable initial alternative to free-flap or muscle-flap transpositions.  相似文献

The angioarchitecture of the skin in the SD strain rat was investigated by scanning electron microscopy using resin cast. The neck part of rat skin was composed of 3 layers of vascular networks: the first layer (superficial layer), the second layer (middle layer), and the third layer (deep layer). Two types of capillary architectures were present around the hair follicle: small architectures composed of random network and large architectures composed of 3 parts distinguished by the construction of network. The large architecture, the capillary of hair papilla and the capillary network of sebaceous gland was thought to compose one circulation unit. The afferent vessels into such units branched from Kandelaberarterie-Petersen occurring from the 3rd layer, ascended to the 2nd layer, then descended to the bottom of the network and composed the capillary architecture. There were 2 types of efferent vessels from such circulation unit. They occurred from superficial and deep part, respectively, of the vascular architecture around the hair follicle and descended straight to the 3rd layer. The presence of straight vessels between the 2 nd and 3 rd layer, and the simple arrangement of vascular layers were thought to be characteristic of the angioarchitecture of the rat skin.  相似文献
