The Assessment of Postoperative Patency and Flow Pattern of Twisted Vascular Pedicle in Propeller Perforator Flaps in Lower Extremities Reconstruction

ConclusionThe perforator propeller flaps are safe, reliable procedures and are considered as an ideal option in reconstructing small-medium defects of the middle and distal third of the leg providing similar skin texture with low rate of vascular obstruction. The present study documented patent vascular pedicle of propeller perforator flaps at three months postoperatively.
