Free lateral arm-flap transplantation is a highly successful procedure, achieving a 96% success rate in 73 cases for covering extensive defects. Donor site outcomes were also evaluated for comparison.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Microsurgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Context:

  • Free lateral arm-flap transplantation is a reconstructive technique used for covering complex defects.
  • This study reports on a significant series of 73 free lateral arm-flap transplantations.
  • The German Group for Microsurgery of Peripheral Nerves and Vessels (DAM) is a relevant collaborative network.

Purpose:

  • To report the outcomes of 73 free lateral arm-flap transplantations.
  • To evaluate the success rate of these flap transplantations.
  • To assess donor-site morbidity using subjective and objective criteria for comparison with existing data.

Summary:

  • A total of 73 free lateral arm-flap transplantations were performed with a high success rate of 96%.

  • The flaps were utilized for diverse indications, successfully covering defects up to 6 x 20 cm.
  • Donor-site defects in 45 patients were analyzed using both subjective and objective measures.

    • Impact:

    • Demonstrates the efficacy and reliability of free lateral arm-flap transplantation in reconstructive surgery.
    • Provides valuable data on donor-site outcomes, aiding in surgical planning and patient counseling.
    • Contributes to the collective knowledge of the German Group for Microsurgery of Peripheral Nerves and Vessels (DAM).
