A new sensate fasciocutaneous flap, innervated by the lower lateral cutaneous nerve of the arm, offers a simple solution for posterior elbow defects. This technique allows for direct closure of the donor site and effective defect coverage.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Reconstructive Surgery
- Orthopedic Surgery
Background:
- Posterior elbow defects pose challenges for reconstruction.
- Sensate flaps are desirable for improved functional outcomes.
- Existing methods may have limitations in simplicity or donor site closure.
