Clinical Experience With a Tensor Fasciae Latae Perforator Flap Based on Septocutaneous Perforators

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possible harvest of a tensor fasciae latae flap based on septocutaneous perforators.This study should further confirm our data from an anatomical study concerning location, distribution, diameter and differentiation of the perforators.

Treatment and study plan

septocutaneous perforator flap

Other

Perforator flaps can be based on septocutaneous or musculocutaneous perforators. If septocutaneous perforators are present, the harvest of these flaps is more straight forward and the dissection of the pedicle is easy.

Other names: fasciocutaneous flaps, perforator flap

    Time frame: January 2008 till may 2010

    Since the purpose of this study was to confirm our anatomical data in a clinical trial, the location, the differentiation and the diameter of the septocutaneous perforators has been measured and recorded during flap elevation.
