DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000009562
Abstract: Summary: The profunda artery perforator flap has numerous advantages. For coverage of extremity wounds, however, traditional subfascial harvest results in a thick flap, which routinely requires secondary thinning. The author describes his approach and experience… read more here.
