DOI: 10.1002/micr.30781
Abstract: BACKGROUND In free osteofasciocutaneous fibula flaps, secondary donor sites are avoided using one of three local closure methods: full-thickness skin grafts (FTSGs), split-thickness skin grafts (STSGs), or flaps. This systemic review aimed to evaluate the… read more here.
