    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric surgery
    • Reconstructive surgery

    Background:

    • Surgical reconstruction in children presents unique challenges.
    • Optimizing donor site morbidity and functional outcomes is crucial.

    Observation:

    • A novel surgical technique utilizing an ipsilateral thigh or buttock flap was developed for pediatric patients.
    • This approach focuses on minimizing patient discomfort and maximizing functional recovery.

    Findings:

    • The described flap technique facilitates easy ambulation post-surgery.
    • Patients exhibit excellent tolerance to the flap positioning.
    • Donor scar placement is optimized for concealment under clothing.

    Implications:

    • This technique offers a promising solution for reconstructive procedures in pediatric populations.
