Abstract:
Since April 1982 the authors have carried out transplanting of the medial femoral arterial flap in 2 cases with complete survival.The procedures of elevation of the flap are performed by incising the skin and fascia lata, dissecting the flap closely over the superficial surface of the sartorius until its medial border is reached, exposing the sheath of the femoral vessels in the intermuscular space, identifying the direct cutaneous artery, and finally raising the flap according to the requirement of recipient area. The texture of the skin in this area is excellent in having a thinner subcutaneous fatty layer and profuse nerve supply and can thus serve as a good neurovascularized flap.
