Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Anatomy
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Perineal and ischial defects require reliable reconstructive options.
  • Existing techniques may involve significant morbidity or sacrifice of functional muscle.
  • The gluteus muscle's vascularity and innervation present an opportunity for innovative flap design.
