Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical value of transposition of the pedicled anterolateral femoral periosteal flap. Methods The blood supply of anterolateral femoral periosteum were dissected on 38 adult cadaveric lower limber specimens injected with red dye. The origins, distributions and anastomosis of periosteal breanches were observed and measured. Based on these anatomic investigations, the transposition of pedicled anterolateral femoral periosteal flap was designed to repair the bone nonunion and lesion of femur. Results Twenty-two cases were treated in the satisfactory results, and followed-up from 1 to 5 years. The size of the periosteal flap ranged from 8cm?4cm to 10cm?5cm. Conclusions The periosteal flap could be operated so conveniently and safely as to be spread easily, treatment of lesion and incision of periosteal flap can be finished in the same operative approach. The periosteal flap have been proved to be powerfully clinical value.
