Summary
A new fascial forearm flap (FFF) technique improves donor site appearance after flap harvesting. This modification ensures excellent flap survival and aesthetic outcomes, enhancing reconstructive surgery options.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Reconstructive Surgery
- Microsurgery
Background:
- Forearm flap harvesting for reconstruction often results in poor donor site aesthetics.
- This limits the widespread adoption of standard fasciocutaneous forearm flaps in some surgical centers.
